The man attempted to bribe a soldier by offering him money and urging him to stop the investigation. He was found near the fire with lighters and a knife by a patrol in the area. The investigation is being coordinated by the Enna prosecutor’s office, which has charged him with arson, incitement to corruption, and illegal possession of a knife.
