Bergamini Tgcom, the all-news site of Mediaset.
The truth that comes back to the surface. This time the case is told by Bergamini Tgcom, the information site Mediaset weblog that records every day something like a million hits. To retrace the story the journalist Armando Cosentino acres along the interview with the footballer's sister committed suicide, "the pasionaria Donata. Good reading, especially for those (many) believe that reopening of the case has a duty to flag rossoblu never forgotten. The incredible story of Donald "Denis" Bergamini, a life without a reason flown for over 20 years, and finally on the horizon to reopen (strongly encouraged by family, bipartisan politics, and a popular movement than ten thousand people ) court case. E 'November 18, 1989 when Bergamini, player and idol of the fans of Cosenza, died on the road 106. According to the testimonies of the time (in particular the former Interior girl Isabella who was with him) is the death by suicide, in the rain: the man would end under the wheels of a truck e poi trascinato per circa 64 metri. L’indagine viene archiviata dalla Procura di Castrovillari, ma quella tesi presenta molte contraddizioni e merita di essere rivista. “L’obiettivo è vicino”, ci dice l’avvocato dei Bergamini, Eugenio Gallerani. E Donata, sorella dell’ex calciatore originario di Boccaleone (Ferrara), ci racconta quanto sia forte la sete di verità.
Signora, cosa prova ripensando al caso di suo fratello? "Il dolore è stato immenso e non ci fermeremo fino a quando non sarà fatta giustizia sulla vicenda. In Italia i processi durano molto, questo caso invece è archiviato frettolosamente, e la sentenza passa in giudicato 3 anni dopo, nel 1992. The driver combination of vehicles is cleared. But just compare the minutes of the police on that day, the evidence el'autopsia, well done 2 months later and only at our request, to realize that the situation is wrong. In later years the name of Denis is also muddy, and who ever we're lucky to know him, believe in his honesty. And Denis is not a suicide, we believe. "
Then we try to reconstruct the scene. Denis goes by his last hours in Cosenza? " The withdrawal is in Cosenza, is preparing to play the game against Messina. Denis in the morning is clear and load, then at 15.30, as the story of Michele Padovano, receives a phone call and immediately his mood changes. The two were close friends and usually Michelle accompanied him to the movies "Garden", where the team used to go every Saturday, and that day Denis strangely decides to go with his Maserati in the company of a masseur. During the pause the movie, my brother gets up and sees Sergio Galeazzi talk to two people, not recognizing them because of darkness. From that moment you lose track of Denis. My brother never wavered in his retreat. "
When and how it spreads the news of the death? " At 19.30 we are contacted by the police and informed that Denis had an accident on the road, at the height of Roseto Capo Spulico. When my husband comes to know before us, through their parents teammate Brunelli, news of the death. Denis often came to my house, so instinctively I put some clothes in his suitcase, thinking of having to attend hospital. Head towards Calabria and we are also Domitius my father and my mother. A 4 kilometers from my husband gives in and tells us how things are. We come to the hospital in Trebisacce, but do not make us go because he has to get the prosecutor. We show the police station, where we present ourselves to the 8 and the marshal makes us wait an hour, because it must "shave" the notes say. Imagine our anger. "
What makes your prime suspects? "Il maresciallo fa entrare solo mio padre e consegna gli effetti personali di Denis, fra cui un portafoglio in pelle con alcune banconote da centomila lire, un assegno da 9 milioni del Cosenza calcio e soprattutto l’orologio. Orologio che è completamente intatto e funzionante e non è nemmeno messo a verbale. Il maresciallo dice che si tratta di dimenticanza. E nel cortile della caserma vediamo parcheggiata la Maserati di Denis, pulitissima e splendente, nonostante la precedente serata di pioggia. Per quanto riguarda i vestiti non li ho mai avuti, il martedì dall’Ospedale mi viene comunicato che erano in un sacco nero e sono finiti nella spazzatura. Così’ come due settimane più tardi vengo in posseSso delle scarpe, né sporche or scratch. How can they be those of a boy dragged from a truck in the rain? The questions are many. Even at the death initially reported by the police, because then we learn, watching the images on Monday 20 Process Biscardi, that does not match ".
The most surprising aspect about the body ... " In the morgue Denis Covered to the neck by a white sheet and his face has almost no sign. We advise you not to lift the towel because, according to them, we shocked the vision of a destroyed body. That is that 2 months after we exhume the body and autopsy showed that Denis is intact. "
Il rapporto con la Internò, unica teste oculare… "Quando succede il fatto Denis e Isabella si sono lasciati da mesi. Io la conosco poco, la vedo il giorno del funerale e poche altre volte. Mi ripete la tesi del suicidio e dice che Denis le aveva promesso la Maserati in regalo. Resta il mistero delle due persone che lo vengono a prendere al cinema? Chi sono?".
Quante volte si riaccende la speranza negli anni successivi? "Due volte. Nell’estate 1994 viene aperta e archiviata un’altra indagine, stavolta della Questura di Cosenza, per omicidio colposo. Nel 2000 un avvocato di Roma si interessa alla nostra storia, ma purtroppo non abbiamo disponibilità economiche. E abitando in Emilia Romagna, far from Cosenza, it is difficult to seize new details.
Everything changes in 2009, during the twenty years since the death of Denis ... "In August of that year, my son, who is also called Denis, discovers If there is a facebook group "Truth Denis Bergamini. From there was born with Alessandro Terni, the founder, a special bond now has an extraordinary result: about 6,500 members and a number of important initiatives. I owe much to the journalist Gabriele Carchidi, who thanks to the head Cosenza Sport, after the summer raise awareness with a series of articles of inquiry and December 27 Cosenza respond en masse with a beautiful demonstration outside the court. But in general I feel very close to two years by all, and again I go back to Calabria. The Association for Truth Denis ", which raises money for legal fees and has its own official bulletin of information. I thank the media who follow us and the people who want to love my brother. "
And politics is moving? " The extraordinary thing is that in a time when the comparison is harsh at the national level, the Bergamini case knows no divisions between center-left and center-destra.L '11 February were present and Mr Bratti (Pd) and at the end of 2010 and has submitted a parliamentary question Senator Balboni (PDL). But do not forget the mayor of Argenta and many local authorities, the first who supported us, even contact a lawyer. "
Technically, now what should happen to reopen the case? " We must submit an official request to the Prosecutor of Castrovillari on the basis of certain documentation, which of course I prefer not to talk. I hope that our efforts and those of all not lost. We want the truth, whatever that is. We have the right to know ".
