November 2nd is the day dedicated to the deceased but these are often not worthily celebrated and respected. At least in Napoli, at least in the cemetery of Poggioreale where over time the conditions of degradation and abandonment increase. The latest complaint comes from citizens who have turned to the deputy of the Green-Sinistra alliance Francesco Emilio Borrelli.
Several and numerous burial niches are in disastrous conditions. Cracks that allow glimpses of the mortal remains while almost all the burial niches are vandalized and prisoners of wild vegetation. Furthermore, among the avenues of the Cimitero Monumentale A woman found a completely rickety zinc box that left a small pile of human bones in plain sight.
“We had asked for extraordinary interventions in view of November 1st and 2nd. Unfortunately, this was not the case. At this point, it is necessary to set up a technical table to discuss the issue of cemeteries in Naples, take stock of the situation and choose a detailed plan of interventions, ordinary and extraordinary. We will never adapt to the scenes of degradation that visitors see every day”, said Borrelli.
