The Municipality has approved the allocation of a fund of one million euros to support the displaced families of the Vela Celeste of Scampia.
Article Key Points
The fund is intended for families who decide to find independent accommodation while waiting for the definitive arrangement of their homes. The contribution will be valid at least until the end of the year.
The matter did not find favourable reception from the members of the Vele committee who in a note underlined: “We do not understand concretely how this allocation can represent an immediate and realistic solution for families left homeless.
For this reason we are calling for a citizen demonstration at Piazza Dante on Tuesday at 17,30:XNUMX p.m. We demand immediate responsibility from all institutional levels and clarity regarding the fate of families.
We ask the city, the artists, to continue to support us, to participate in the procession alongside the people of the Vele because what happened and what is happening does not only concern the Vele di Scampia but the whole city".
Monday, a day of mourning for the city on the day of the funeral
Meanwhile, Monday 29 July will be "the day of silence". It will be the day in which the Archbishop of Naples Mimmo Battaglia will preside over the funeral of the three victims of the collapse: Patrizia and Margherita Della Ragione and Roberto Abbruzzo.
Given the expectation of a large popular participation, during the meeting of the rescue coordination centre convened by the prefect Michele of Bari it was decided that for reasons of public order the rite will be celebrated at 9 in Piazza Giovanni Paolo II and no longer in the church of Resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ, in Piazza Libertà in the Monterosa district
