Giuseppe Proia, CEO of Str92 from Fontana Liri near Frosinone, the company in charge of railway work with which Italian rail agency Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI) has suspended a contract over a malfunction in the Rome railway network that paralyzed train traffic around the capital on Wednesday, said the company is trying to determine "exactly what happened yesterday".
"Before speaking, we want to have a clear picture of what happened", Proia told ANSA.
"We have not appointed a lawyer yet and we haven't taken a decision regarding the suspension of the contract with RFI.
"Before anything, we want to clear our ideas", he concluded.
A worker with the private firm has been accused of hammering a nail into a cable, causing huge rail disruption due to technical issues at Rome's Termini and Tiburtina stations which led to the cancellation of over 100 trains Wednesday and major delays.
