Four people were found guilty
for a huge trash fire that burned for days on the outskirts of
Milan in October sending noxious fumes as far as the city
centre.
The four received jail terms of up to six and a half years.
They were found guilty of illicit waste trafficking and
storage and causing a toxic fire.
The longest sentence was handed down on Aldo Bosina, head of
the IPB Italia company which ran the warehouse.
Bosina and the others were also sentenced to pay the city of
Milan almost two million euros in damages.
Property seizures of over one million euros were also
ordered.
The fire in Via Chiasserini broke out on October 14.
It took firefighters over two days to tame it.
