Swiss Ski Resort Bar Owner Held Without Bail in Deadly Fire Probe
The owners of a Swiss ski resort bar, where a devastating fire ravaged the premises on New Year's Eve, have found themselves at the center of an intense investigation. Jacques and Jessica Moretti, who own the bar, were subjected to a lengthy interrogation by prosecutors for nearly six hours on Friday.
During this tense grilling session, it became clear that authorities are taking their pursuit of justice seriously. The couple's seemingly carefree demeanor at first was swiftly replaced with an air of caution as they faced the weight of their alleged culpability in the blaze that claimed several lives and injured many more.
However, things took a dramatic turn when Jacques Moretti was detained by authorities on the grounds that he poses a flight risk. This development suggests that prosecutors are convinced that the couple may attempt to evade justice if released on bail, adding another layer of complexity to an already harrowing case.
The probe into the fire's cause and its devastating consequences continues to unfold, with the Moretti couple at the epicenter. As investigators dig deeper, they aim to uncover the truth behind one of Europe's most shocking incidents in recent years.
