The Sondrio Prosecutor’s Office has seized the video which immortalized the accident that took the life of Ghizlane Moutahir on Sunday morning, the 41-year-old Moroccan who died while she was trying the adrenaline-filled experience of Fly Emotion, the zipline that allows you to fly over the Bitto Valley.
One of the two nieces who were with her and who had carried out the overflight shortly before was in fact filming her aunt’s arrival at the first station, Bema, and witnessed helplessly, with phone in hand, her death. Images that will facilitate the investigations of the police and allow full light to be shed on what happened around twenty minutes past twelve on Sunday morning.
According to an initial reconstruction, the woman had arrived about twenty meters from the arrival station and was more than 20 meters above sea level when she stopped, perhaps because she was too light.
At this point she may have gotten scared and removed her feet from the safety stirrups and then, perhaps because the harness was loose, she slipped into the void. She rolled into the woods below, dying instantly.
Ghizlane Moutahir had been in Italy for many years. She was born in July 1981 in Kenitra, Morocco, in the past she had lived in Carate Brianza, where she worked in a pastry shop. A passion, that for cooking and pastry making, that she has never abandoned. She had moved from Brianza to Oliveto Lario, where for a period she had also rented the former Grigna bar, in via Garibaldi. Then, while maintaining her residence in the town in the province of Lecco, she moved to Sant’Angelo Lodigiano. She was married to a compatriot, who was with her in Valtellina on Sunday morning, but who hadn’t wanted to experience the thrill of ziplining.
