Tony Boy interrogated in Milan following arrest for drugs and weapons

Italian trap artist Tony Boy, born Antonio Hueber, underwent interrogation at San Vittore prison in Milan following his arrest on August 22. He faces charges including possession of cocaine, marijuana, and hashish for the purpose of drug dealing, as well as possession of an illegal 6.35 caliber Beretta pistol and approximately 50 rounds of ammunition.

During questioning before judge Chiara Valori, the 26-year-old rapper denied the drug trafficking charges, claiming the substances were for personal use due to a declared addiction. Regarding the firearm, Hueber admitted to possessing it but stated he purchased it through a Telegram group for self-defense following a recent burglary at his home.

His lawyer, Niccolò Vecchioni, emphasized the artist's personal vulnerabilities and requested that no precautionary measures be applied, or alternatively, that he be granted house arrest. A decision regarding the validation of the arrest and potential custody measures is expected later today.
