The local unit of Public Health in Kruja has concluded that the water consumed by the citizens of Kruja who have shown signs of poisoning, has loads of escherichia coli and fecal streptococcus which have infiltrated after mixing with sewage.
130 other citizens in Kruja were hospitalized last night, bringing to 500 the number of people poisoned by drinking water. Despite knowing that the poisoning may have come from water, they consumed the spare water they had in the house. The mixing of sewage with white water is suspected to have caused mass poisoning.
The Kruja Prosecutor’s Office has launched an investigation into the serious epidemiological situation. Investigations will be conducted on the accusation: “Pollution of air, water and soil resulting in damage to human health.” There is currently no person under investigation. Initially they will focus on discovering the causes that led to the poisoning of the residents.
The Prosecution has ordered the performance of forensic acts. In the press release, he says that investigations are being carried out in terms of physico-chemical and bacterial analysis of drinking water that supplies the city of Kruja. However, to reach a conclusion, the Prosecution says that it is waiting for the analysis of the IPH. /abcnews.al
