Cops have now arrested seven young Egyptians – four adults and three minors, aged between 15 to 19.
Investigators say that the victim and her boyfriend, 17, were attacked while walking in Villa Bellini park at around 7.30pm in the eastern Sicilian coastal city of Catania on January 30.
The boyfriend was then beaten and reportedly held down and forced to watch while at least two of the suspects raped the 13-year-old in a public toilet.
The victim was later able to identify two underage boys, while her boyfriend was identified another five other suspects.
A seventh was later tracked down by police as he attempted to flee the city, Ansa reports.
The crime has sparked fury across Italy, with Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni stating: “It strikes me that on the day in which a very young martyr of the Christian tradition is celebrated [Sant’Agata], we should see another very young victim of sexual violence.
“I want to say this to express my solidarity with her and her family. The State will be there and justice will be done.”
