Last of seven bodies recovered from Italian plant blast

Following the blast at a hydroelectric plant in Italy, rescuers on Friday found the body of the last worker missing, bringing the final death toll to seven.

Fire spokesman Luca Cari confirmed that all the workers missing after Tuesday’s explosion had now been found.

The cause of the blast at Enel Green Power’s Bargi plant on Lake Suviana near Bologna remains unclear.

EGP’s chief executive, Salvatore Bernabei, said in an interview published Friday that any speculation was “premature”, saying it would take time to understand a “very complex” situation.

But he rejected any suggestion there had been safety issues at the plant.

The company said earlier this week that “efficiency works” had been entrusted to three primary companies, Siemens, ABB and Voith.

The firm on Wednesday announced a two-million-euro fund for the urgent needs of victims and their families.
