Cagliari, Gennaro Cantiello sunk in Su Siccu
It transported the inmates of the Asinara prison, for years at the center of a dispute between the owner and the Authority«They must pass over my body, no one will demolish this ship»: Salvatore “Dodo” Pergola said it with strength and conviction a few days ago from the columns of L'Unione Sarda. It was in front of the Gennaro Cantiello, in Su Siccu, in the sea of Cagliari . It was in front of the Gennaro Cantiello , the boat that transported the prisoners to the Asinara prison (the Red Brigade member Renato Curcio, the boss Raffaele Cutolo and Matteo Boe, among others), reduced to a wreck, at the center of a dispute with the Port Authority and Port Authority.
Where the authorities could not, time, abandonment and rust intervened: the Gennaro Cantiello is today half-sunk, as shown by the images published on the "La Zona" channel by the journalist Antonello Lai.
Forty-three meters of steel, which ended up in the hands of the lawyers, in a tug of war with the Port Authority that has been going on since 2014 and does not subside. "I'm not giving up, I'll fight as long as I have strength," said Pergola, who as owner had received the demolition order which he never followed up on. Now that piece of history is half underwater. The rest emerges only because the seabed is shallow at that point.
