Italy's Other Earthquake (1981x2)

Uitzenddatum: Jan 12, 1981

Money is now pouring in to rebuild the lives and homes of the survivors of Italy's earthquake. But will the 600 stricken villages ever rise again from the rubble? What will happen to the money? And will the political shockwaves of the disaster bring about fundamental changes in the way the country is governed? Amidst reports that the Mafia is exploiting the tragedy, John Stapleton visits the scene of an earthquake 12 years ago in Sicily, where 40,000 people still live in temporary houses, and where billions of lire in aid money have mysteriously disappeared.
