Ustica massacre: opposition says, “Good move by the government to oppose the dismissal of the case”

Rome, 28 June (LaPresse) – “The announcement by Palazzo Chigi that the Government will oppose the request to close the investigation into the Ustica air disaster is significant. It responds to a key demand made by the association of bereaved families and its President, Daria Bonfietti. Equally important is the plan to bring a civil action once the preliminary hearings have concluded. We, too, had supported Daria’s request and acknowledge this important step towards truth and justice, as well as others that we hope may be taken forty-six years after the massacre.” So said PD MPs Walter Verini and Andrea De Maria; Ilaria Cucchi, AVS; Marco Lombardo, Azione; Ivan Scalfarotto, IV; and Marco Pellegrini, M5S.
