Two businessmen were arrested
Wednesday for allegedly building roads and bridges across Italy
with poor-quality materials.
The material was inferior to what they stated, both in
quality and quantity, police said.
This posed a major risk to stability and safety.
They allegedly paid bribes to avert detection.
The men, Francesco and Salvatore Nicchiniello, worked all
over Italy, police said.
The Naples-basd probe involved the towns of Villa Literno and
Lusciano.
Italy has seen a number of bridge collapses.
The worst was in Genoa in August 2018, when 43 people died.
