SIX people are facing manslaughter charges after a girl, 7, drowned at a church summer camp in a horror wristband mix-up.

Anisa Murati’s body was found at the bottom of a lake in Caraglio, Italy, after she was given the wrong-coloured wristband.

She was wearing an orange wristband which indicated she was confident in the water.

She allegedly should have been wearing green for low-skilled swimmers.

Emergency services were called July 17, 2024, after panicked camp staff could only find Anisa’s pink sandals at the edge of the bio-lake.

She was reportedly last seen around 3.30pm, but the search only began an hour later.

Divers later recovered her body around 6pm from the bottom of the 6’5″ft deep lake.

Now, almost two years later, public prosecutors in nearby Cuneo have requested that six people face trial for manslaughter.

Among those named are engineer Stefano Ferrari and architect Graziano Viale, who signed off on AcquaViva bio-park, and its manager, Roberto Manzi.

The others are parish priest Fabrizio Della Bella, who organised the summer camp, and the two young animators responsible for supervising the children.

Investigators say all six displayed “negligence and incompetence” and claim the biopark suffered from structural, design, and safety deficiencies.

By wearing the wrong wristband, it allegedly allowed her to approach the bio-lake – which had murky waters and a slippery bed – without flotation armbands.

Acqua Viva Biopark manager Manzi reportedly called Della Bella to warn him that the animators were not supervising the children properly, but prosecutors say he failed to intervene.

Only two animators were present and when the alarm was raised, just one was actually on duty, even though four lifeguards were legally required.

Prosecutors also allege that Manzi failed to provide basic safety measures, such as a floating barrier separating the shallow and deep areas of the lake.

Ferrari and Viale are accused of signing off on the completed bio-park works even though they allegedly did not conform to the approved project.

Anisa was the daughter of Albanian parents, Jetmir and Rozafe, who live in Demonte with two other children.

The couple had already lost another daughter to illness in 2019 while living in Prazzo.

At the time, Anisa’s headteacher, Diego Deidda, described her as “a bright, cheerful child, friendly and good at school”.

Jetmir, then 37, called Anisa “my life” and recalled: “My little girl wore glasses. She always kept them in her bag because I taught her to take them off before going in the water so they wouldn’t break.

“We found them in her bag. That means she went into the water on purpose – she didn’t just fall in by accident.
