Two elderly care-home
residents died in March 2020 after drinking hand detergent
thinking it was water at the retirement community at Ovada near
Alessandria in northern Italy, Ovada councillor Pier Sandro
Cassulo revealed Tuesday.
Another one of the residents who also drank the detergent
survived, he said.
Cassulo said a family had stood as civil plaintiffs in the case.
