the crimes hypothesized by the Bologna Prosecutor’s Office –

The investigation into the Suviana massacre begins while the search for the 4 workers still missing inside the Enel Green Power hydroelectric plant resumes. Manslaughter and manslaughter are the crimes hypothesized by the Bologna Prosecutor’s Office led by Giuseppe Amato, who together with the prosecutor Flavio Lazzarini arranged some expert reports to establish the causes of the turbine explosion. After a suspension of a few hours necessary to make the structure safe, which descends up to 40 meters below the level of the Bargi artificial basin in the Bologna Apennines, the search for the 4 workers who were found at the time of the accident resumed in the evening. on the -8 floor, which remained flooded due to the explosion that occurred on the upper floor, where the three victims confirmed so far were present. One hundred firefighters were at work all day, although there is very little hope of finding the electronic engineer Adriano Scandellari, the 37-year-old Alessandro D’Andrea, the 59-year-old Paolo Casiraghi and the 68-year-old Vincenzo Garzillo alive. “We are not working with much hope of finding the missing alive, the scenario before us does not give us this idea”, admitted the communications manager of the Fire Brigade Luco Cari already in the morning, explaining that inside the plant “the “the water is rising”, therefore “this is a risky situation for our operators too”. The divers will still go up to the -10 floor.

“I express my deepest condolences to all the victims and families for this tragic event that has shocked us. What went wrong? We are working with the authorities to ascertain it, now it is too early to say. We are working with the firefighters and civil protection precisely to ascertain the facts as soon as possible, because in this event the most important damage is in terms of human life”, said the CEO of Enel Green Power, Salvatore Bernabei, assuring that “to carry out these emergency works technological update we had chosen among the best firms and companies in the electricity and hydroelectric sector: Siemens, Abb and Voith”. 24 hours after the tragedy, the confirmed death toll remains at 3: the oldest is 73-year-old Mario Pisani, owner of Engineering automation, the company for which the other two people who lost their lives also worked, 45-year-old Pavel Petronel Tanase and the 36 year old Vincenzo Franchina. “My colleagues at work knew what to do, they had gone to Suviana not even to work but to supervise a job that had already been done, they were checking, they didn’t even have to be there”, Diego Ottonello, a worker from Genoa, told LaPresse of the same company which is based in Mele, in the province of Genoa, except only because he is ill. A great scare but fortunately no consequences for some classes of the ‘Muratori’ middle school in Vignola, who yesterday were in the refreshment area right near the power station after a trip to the adventure park. The secretary of the Democratic Party, Elly Schlein, went to the site of the disaster today to ask that “safety at work truly be the priority of this country”.

The Minister of Labour, Marina Calderone, also arrived in Bargi, but did not go too far on the dynamics: “For us the commitment is not only to make a dutiful visit to a place where people work and where there are those who have lost his life to work, but “demonstrate the closeness of the State and the government to the territory, to the communities that are very tried”, he said. For the Minister of the Environment and Energy Security Gilberto Pichetto Fratin, “it is not predictable how long the plant will remain offline “because it is not known what the extent of the damage is” which should be “certainly enormous”. The mayor of Bologna, Matteo Lepore, has invited all citizens to take to the streets tomorrow at the procession promoted by the CGIL and UIL unions to say a stop to unrelated deaths. Lepore also received a call from Flavio Cattaneo, who “kept it known that Enel will not abandon Suviana and the entire surrounding area” but “will build what is needed and will stay close to the territory and to the entire affected community”.
