The prosecution of the bus driver who killed 29 tourists in Caniço earlier this year is underway.
In a damning statement, the prosecution has declared that the driver drove recklessly and without due care or attention. The bus, which the driver originally said was out of control, had reached a speed of 50 km/h before mounting the pavement and toppling through a barrier and down the embankment.
A lawsuit against the Municipality of Santa Cruz has now been filed.
