Why It Matters
The accident occurred inside a construction site at the Colosseum Archaeological Park, where work was underway in view of the inauguration scheduled for October 9th.
The 22-year-old worker who died last night at the Colosseum would have been found with a harness but without a rope attached.
These are the first elements to emerge from the investigation by the Rome Prosecutor's Office, coordinated by Deputy Antonino Di Maio. The rope was not found broken but also on this aspect a technical consultancy will be carried out to reconstruct the dynamics of the events.
At the time of the accident, two other workers were present inside the construction site, including the victim's brother-in-law, who were interviewed by the investigators.
Furthermore, based on what we learn, a series of documents, including those relating to the contract, were acquired from the Colosseum Archaeological Park body. Furthermore, checks will be carried out on the training of workers who have already been engaged for months in view of the inauguration scheduled for 9 October.
