30 December 2019 Five people have been entered in the register of suspects in the avalanche investigation that last Saturday struck some skiers on the 'Teufelsegg' slope in Val Senales causing the death of three of them, including two minors.

The hypotheses of crime are multiple culpable homicide and culpable disaster resulting from an avalanche, the prosecutor of the Republic of Bolzano, Giancarlo Bramante, says.

Yesterday during a reconnaissance flight with subsequent inspection, the size of the avalanche and the related detachment points were documented, also photographically. The runway in question was subjected to evidentiary seizure. This afternoon the prosecutor has appointed an avalanche expert to reconstruct the accident dynamics. In addition, the Prosecutor's Office has issued the clearances for the burial of the victims.
