Livorno prosecutor's office requests the dismissal of the investigation into Moby Prince

The Livorno prosecutor's office has requested the dismissal of the investigation against unknown persons into the Moby Prince disaster, which occurred in the harbor of Livorno on 10 April 1991 and cost the lives of 140 people. This was made known by the prosecutor's office itself, underlining that the investigation which the DDA of Florence had also opened in parallel to investigate the possible mafia or terrorist origins of the disaster has already been closed: "The investigations had had a negative outcome and had led to the request for dismissal of 3 December 2024, accepted by the investigating judge of Florence with decree of 27 February 2025".

The Livorno investigation hypothesized the crime of malicious massacre and was launched following the filing of the final report by the second Senate Commission of Inquiry into the causes of the disaster presented on 11 December 2017, "which had highlighted various critical issues, errors and omissions in the reconstruction of the facts carried out in the past".
