The five workers who died in Casteldaccia: there is a first suspect

The vacuum truck probe would have blocked and the workers would have asked the Amap works director for permission to go underground. The "cap" that prevented the probe from purging would have blown and the first 3 workers, including the team leader and co-owner of Quadrifoglio, Epifanio Alsazia, would have been hit by sewage and lethal gas, would have lost consciousness and would have fallen into the tank below. To help them, three other workers, including the temporary worker Giuseppe La Barbera, reportedly got out. Two are dead, one, Domenico Viola, is dying in intensive care at the Polyclinic. Doctors, who speak of "multi-organ failure", are trying to understand which of the vital functions have been compromised. The investigations aim to clarify any security gaps - none of the workers were wearing masks -, with what criteria the staff who were not specialized and would not have followed safety courses were selected and why the Amap technician authorized the victims to go down to the room of the plant.
