Nine requests for sentences ranging from seven months of arrest to one year and 10 months of imprisonment were formulated at the end of an hour and a half of indictment by the public prosecutor Rossella Spano in the trial arising from the investigation by the Cagliari Prosecutor's Office into alleged building abuses linked to the expansion of the bomb factory of Rwm, the company with a factory in Domusnovas controlled by the German Rheinmetall.

Also at the hearing, before judge Gianluigi Dettori, are the CEO of Rwm, Fabio Sgarzi, the deputy Leonardo Demarchi, and the three technicians appointed by the company to draw up the expansion projects, Palmiro Palmas, Ignazio Pibia and Mauro Pompei. Also on trial are the municipal officials who had issued the authorizations for the expansion: the manager of the One-Stop Shop for Production and Construction Activities (Suape) of Iglesias and Domusnovas, Lamberto Tomasi, as well as the technicians Elsa Ghiani, Anna Rita Perseu and Giuseppe Matzei.

The disputes concern the expansion of the company's buildings which, according to the accusation, occurred without the necessary urban, environmental and landscape authorisations. The indictment includes crimes of forgery and around thirty alleged violations of building and environmental regulations linked to the factory expansion project between 2017 and 2019.

The investigation was born from a series of complaints presented by various pacifist and ecological associations, committees and trade union organizations. Civil party lawyers from numerous environmentalist and pacifist associations, trade unions and movements that have formed civil parties also discussed today. The hearing was then postponed to November for the defenders' arguments
