Outraged relatives of the victims of the fatal fire in Cran Montana attacked the owners of the Le Constellation nightclub as they arrived for their fourth day of testimony at the Sion prosecutor's office in Switzerland. The relatives, wearing clothes with photos of their deceased loved ones, verbally abused and threatened the couple, expressing their anger over the tragedy. According to journalistic reports, the owners had minimal police protection when they were attacked. The relatives pushed them against the wall, insulted them, and accused them of the deaths of their loved ones. Co-owner Jessica Moretti appeared in tears, while one parent shouted: “You killed my son, you killed 40 people, you will pay for it.” The New Year's fire in Cran Montana claimed the lives of 41 people and injured 115, mostly teenagers. The couple, who are under judicial supervision, are under investigation for negligent homicide, negligent bodily harm, and negligent arson, offenses that carry up to 20 years in prison. In their testimony, they reportedly blamed an employee who also lost her life in the fire.
