A manager for the Parma-based
construction company Bonatti is under investigation in relation
to the killing this year of two Italians taken hostage in Libya
- Salvatore Failla and Fausto Piano, sources said on Wednesday.
Dennis Morson, Bonatti's logistics chief for Libya, is
probed for suspected culpable homicide and breaching regulations
on safe working conditions, the sources said.
Carabinieri police on Wednesday searched the offices of
Bonatti to gather evidence for the probe, sources said.
Failla and Piano were killed on March 2, apparently in a
firefight between the kidnappers and militia loyal to the
Tripoli national unity government, although the circumstances
are still not entirely clear.
They were taken captive along with two other Italian
hostages, Filippo Calcagno and Gino Pollicardo.
Calcagno and Pollicardo broke out of the house they were
being held in in the city of Sabratha a day after Failla and
Piano were killed.
