“There is anger and the thought that there is a plan for the collapse to become definitive is becoming increasingly stronger.”
Thus to the Dire agency. Pina Caccavale, president of the committee 'Collapse 5 January 2022 - Together to not forget', which brings together about eighty relatives of the deceased whose remains were placed in the niches that collapsed last January at the Monumental Cemetery of Poggioreale in Naples, following the collapse of the congregations of the White Doctors and of San Gioacchino, comments on the collapse of other parts of the building, and with them of other human remains, which occurred following the extreme weather events that have hit the Campania capital in recent days.
"Nine months after the first collapse," Caccavale remarks , "the distrust and pain are growing. Not a single apology from Metropolitana di Napoli SpA for what happened, clearly related to their construction site activities, and this silence remains despite the fact that some of their professionals have been under investigation since last June.
To make our dismay worse, there are the procedural delays that make what is an emergency situation seem unworthy of a speedy resolution. The cemetery was reopened in the parts deemed practicable, and therefore released from sequestration by the judiciary, but since then nothing has happened regarding our situation. Indeed, following other collapses, this time to the sewage system, the installation of the two cranes to be used for the removal of the bodies has been postponed”.

On October 5th, during the commemoration promoted and hosted monthly by the Committee, "an event open to the public will be held, because," Caccavale concludes , "we deserve our grief to be public and increasingly known. We are exhausted."
