Former rail chief Mauro Moretti on Tuesday had his five-year term upheld at the third appeal trial for the June 2009 rail disaster at Viareggio that killed 32 people.
Moretti, ex CEO of Ferrovie dello Stato (FS) national rail company and its network unit RFI, was found guilty along with others of culpable negligence in the June 29, 2009 disaster, when a freight train derailed and the gas it was carrying exploded into a fireball engulfing the station and nearby areas of the coastal Tuscan town.
