A 20-year-old man was burned to
death in a fire that swept through the so-called 'Ghetto of the
Bulgarians', a shanty town 20km from the Puglia city of Foggia,
on Friday. Other victims are feared. Police said a
malfunctioning gas stove was probably the cause of the fire. It
was the second fire in shanty towns near Foggia in a few days,
after another one in the 'Great Ghetto' that destroyed some 100
huts housing African farm workers, leaving one man bruised and
another overcome by fumes. A stove malfunction was also behind
that fire.
