It will be the investigation of the Turin prosecutor's office to ascertain the causes and possible responsibilities for the death of Filippo Falotico, 20, Roberto Peretto (52) and Marco Pozzetti (54), the three workers killed in the collapse of the crane two days ago in Turin .
All three were anchored and safe, but fell to the ground together with the structure from a height of 40 meters. And the massacre, as residents say, could have been even worse: "Just before the crash a bus was passing. The driver must have heard the bang behind him and accelerated after a short hesitation."
THE INVESTIGATIONS - Meanwhile, the surveys on the site of the tragedy continue: yesterday morning, with the fog and the temperature around zero, the firefighters inspected the stretch of Via Genova where the accident occurred. The operators of the Sap and the Nia investigative unit, also using a drone, made films that will be made available to the magistrates.
It is not yet possible to establish with certainty whether a human error, an omission of some kind, a sudden break was at the origin of the collapse of the crane. The track due to the collapse of a portion of the asphalt under the enormous weight of the plants is less and less traveled.
The light is lit on the mobile crane of the company "Calabrese" which with its powerful mechanical arm was completing the assembly of the blue lattice crane of the "Logo-Gru" where the three workers were. Once assembled, the structure would be used for the renovation of the roof of a building: the work had been entrusted by the condominium, whose administrator is responsible for the works, to "Fiammengo". The operator, an employee of the "Calabrese", who was injured, has already been heard as witnesses by pm Giorgio Nicola.
THE TESTIMONY - "When I passed in front of it with some friends, that 'arm' was tilted in a strange way, like a rainbow - says a woman -. I have no competence in the matter and probably what I saw does not mean anything. I had a bad feeling. Then I walked away. Less than 10 minutes later they phoned me to tell me that everything had collapsed. "
There are many Turinese who, in silence, approach the barriers as if on a pilgrimage. Who places a bouquet of flowers, who lights a candle. Signs are also popping up to say "enough" to deaths at work. The mayor, Stefano Lo Russo, announced that city mourning will be proclaimed on the day of the funeral of the three victims (after the autopsy to be ordered by the prosecutor).
For today the grassroots unions have called a protest garrison in front of the labor inspectorate in Turin, tomorrow CGIL CISL and UIL will be in the square, also in the Piedmontese capital. "That of Turin - reflects the governor Alberto Cirio - is a huge tragedy which, adding to all those we have counted over the years, highlights the weak point of a system that we must make sure to make sure. We keep in mind that the PNRR it will bring thousands of construction sites to Piedmont and Italy ".
