On the dynamics of the collapse at the construction site in via Mariti "it is premature to say anything" but "the very empirical data we obtained from an initial inspection is that there were various critical issues, which we noted when we went to the construction site".
The Florence prosecutor Filippo Spiezia said this in the meeting with the media without wanting to add anything else regarding the conditions of the construction site.
The search continues for the last missing person among the eight workers involved in the collapse that occurred last Friday, at 8.52 am, on the construction site in via Mariti in Florence.
This is Bouzekri Rachimi, 56 years old, Moroccan.
Four victims whose bodies were recovered between Friday and Saturday, three injured.

Among the rubble of the construction site, where an Esselunga supermarket is being built, the firefighters are working continuously and between yesterday and last night they removed the beam that gave way causing the chain collapse of the floors.
An intervention that was necessary because, from what we learned, the beam was moving.
Once removed, the search for the missing person was able to resume.

The young daughter of Mohamed Toukabri, 54, Tunisian, one of the victims of the collapse, went to the construction site.
"Now we have to wait for recognition and then we will take him to Tunisia - said Rim Toukabri -. I am the daughter, my father's brother is inside and we only know that the body is in the hospital, in forensic medicine, but we know nothing how it went."
The ASL: 'In January check on the construction site, no findings'
"This is classified as a large project because it has a significant economic volume. In these cases there is very frequent monitoring, our last check was conducted on January 12th and did not give rise to any findings. There had been others precedents because there is a very frequent systematic control".
Renzo Berti, director of the prevention department of the ASL Toscana Centro, said this regarding checks at the construction site in via Mariti in Florence where the collapse occurred last Thursday which overwhelmed 8 workers: four victims and one still missing in addition to three wounded.
"In general - added Berti - subcontracting is a tool that allows for greater efficiency of activities and also greater speed of execution. It is not said that subcontracting in itself is evil, it may happen that there are subcontracting made with an inadequate criterion. But we found nothing on this."
According to what we learned, the next ASL audit was scheduled for March.
