Pirelli tower reopens
Parts of the Pirelli tower in Milan have been reopened, after last week's accident in which a light plane crashed into the skyscraper. Three people - including the pilot - died in the collision. Investigations into the cause of the accident are still going on, but the authorities have ruled out any kind of terrorist attack. There have been suggestions that the pilot -- a 67-year-old Swiss-Italian who had financial problems - might have committed suicide. But the Italian Interior Minister Claudio Scajola said that explanation was contradicted by the pilot's communications with traffic control and his attempts to land.
