He was attending the funeral of a 96-year-old relative when he fell into an open trap door and died.
It happened at the Bosnasco cemetery, in the province of Pavia: and now, on the death of Roberto Cavanna, 77, a pensioner from Stradella, the Pavia Public Prosecutor's Office has opened an investigation.
The man, a former banker and in the past also the mayor of Volpara, did not notice the opening in the floor (to access the basement of the cemetery), which apparently was not properly marked, and ended up down. Brought back to the surface thanks to the intervention of the firefighters, it was transported by ambulance to the Policlinico San Matteo in Pavia. Initially he did not appear to be in serious condition but worsened as the hours passed until his death, despite attempts by doctors to revive him.
The body was made available to the judicial authority. The crime hypothesis being investigated is manslaughter, an autopsy was also ordered.
The investigators have already heard the Bosnasco Municipality employees who deal with the management of the cemetery and the employees of the funeral home that took care of the funeral. It is not excluded that some warranty notices will be issued soon.
