In a rural area of Piazzolla di Nola, in the Neapolitan area, the Guardia di Finanza discovered a clandestine factory of pyrotechnic devices. In the shed a real fireworks factory had been built that worked hard in view of the holidays through numerous machines.
The yellow flames have found over 1 ton of fireworks ready to be placed on the market, thousands of useful products for packaging and almost 5 quintals of gunpowder.
Among the barrels seized, many had the counterfeit "CE" mark, while others had been prepared with the words "D10S" and with the colors of the Argentine national team.
Tests carried out on the material, with the help of specialized Army personnel, confirmed a particularly unstable, dangerous and highly explosive composition of the gunpowder.
Three people were arrested for detention and failure to report exploding material.
"The intervention of the financiers - explain the military - was able to avert a potential tragedy, taking into account that clandestine production took place in total disregard of the very strict security measures in the sector".
