(ANSA) - Rome, June 10 - Prosecutors in the Lombardy city of
Bergamo north of Milan are set to quiz, as witnesses, Premier
Giuseppe Conte and health and interior ministers Roberto
Speranza and Luciana Lamorgese over an alleged failure to
promptly set up 'red zones' in two Lombard towns among the most
hard hit by the coronavirus, sources said Wednesday.
The hearing will concern, sources said, the alleged failure
to set up red zones at Nembro and Alzano Lombardo by sealing
them off.
Meanwhile President Sergio Mattarella announced that he will
inaugurate the next school year in September at the Veneto town
of Vo' Euganeo, which saw Italy's first COVID-19 victim.
Lombardy is the hardest hit region with half of Italy's total
of 3,500 virus deaths.
Veneto comes third, after Emilia-Romagna.
