In a note to the press, the prosecutor Olimpia Bossi said “relatives had not been informed and the broadcast of the footage was prohibited”. After that, the clip has been shown in full or in part on the internet by several other Italian media, with only some blurring the victims’ faces. Prosecutors in the city of Verbania – who have opened an investigation into suspected involuntary manslaughter and negligence – said the decision to publish the video was “an absolute inappropriateness”.Īccording to reports, the CCTV footage was first aired on a news programme on the Italian channel Rai 3, with the cabin blurred. On Wednesday, Rai TV aired a video of the accident showing the cabin nearing its final stop before speeding back and crashing to the ground.
