From the analysis of the material and the facts we make a formal complaint against unknown persons for abandonment of waste and consequent formation of an illegal landfill as mentioned in article 256 paragraph 3 of Legislative Decree no. 152/06 which sanctions the construction and management of illegal landfills in the area via Argine Sinistro north of the Calopinace River adjacent to via Boschicello and in front of Spirito Santo”. Thus begins the warning note of Sovereign People’s Democracysigned by the Calabrian coordinator Giuseppe Modafferi and sent to the Guarantor, Region, Health District and Disinfestation Service.

“We also denounce that this area of ​​abandoned waste is also subject to numerous fires set in motion for the illegal disposal of the waste itself, with the consequent development of dioxin in the area to the detriment of the health of the surrounding population.
