Macabre discovery on the steps of the Grotta di Nettuno , closed to the public in this period.
The body of a man was found lying in the steps leading to the karst complex on the western slope of Capo Caccia , the famous Escala del Cabirol . The body was found, in the first section of stairs , immediately after the gate, by an employee of the Grotta di Nettuno which, even if closed also due to the prohibitive weather conditions, is subject to inspections and maintenance interventions almost daily.
The man was found with a disfigured face , perhaps due to the action of the wildlife that populates that area of the cliff. The firefighters and the Carabinieri of the Compagnia di Alghero intervened on the spot. The hypothesis is that the body had been on the steps for less than 24 hours, because the staff of the Grotta di Nettuno had also walked the long staircase yesterday without detecting any presence.
