A letter to Sergio Mattarella

The Esposito family lawyer, Angelo Melonhas sent a letter to the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarellaasking that the tragedy “become a symbol of reflection and commitment” to combat labor exploitation, illegal hiring and the illegal fireworks market. “Sara and Aurora are not victims of a cruel fate, but of a system that allows these illegalities to proliferate – writes Melone – this tragedy must shake consciences and push institutions to intervene decisively to prevent similar events from occurring again.”

“As the highest position of the State and guarantor of the Constitution – adds the lawyer in the letter to Mattarella -I ask you to be the spokesperson for this social complaint. Their authoritative voice can shake consciences, increase public awareness and encourage politics to intervene decisively in these issues. We can no longer accept that people continue to die in Italy because of work that should be a source of life and dignity. “The Esposito family seeks justice, but also concrete change so that no other family has to experience similar pain.”
