Autopsy results for one of the victims of the Crans-Montana disaster confirmed death by suffocation, with prosecutors revealing that Jacques Moretti was aware of the risk of heavy smoke beforehand.

The Valais public prosecutor's office is reopening an old fire case involving entrepreneur Jacques Moretti, who is now facing scrutiny over potential insurance fraud.

The hearing for Jacques Moretti, owner of the Constellation bar, has been postponed due to his 'depressive state' as part of the investigation into the Crans-Montana fire. The January 1st blaze resulted in 41 deaths and 115 injuries.

Jacques Moretti and his wife have repeatedly given conflicting figures for the allowed guest capacity at their 'Constellation' venue in Crans-Montana, with Moretti dismissing reported numbers as 'false' without providing alternatives.

New investigative files cite incriminating WhatsApp messages from the bar operators in Crans-Montana, revealing that Jessica Moretti warned about a potential catastrophe in 2019 and Jacques Moretti apparently demanded a fire exit be blocked.

The position of the Crans-Montana municipality has worsened as four more politicians and officials have been placed under investigation, bringing the total number of suspects to thirteen. Jacques Moretti is scheduled to appear before magistrates again on June 5.

The investigation into the deadly Crans-Montana "Constellation" fire faces a potential slowdown after the audition of Jacques Moretti was postponed for medical reasons, as he is reportedly suffering from reactive depression.

Jacques Moretti, owner of Bar Le Constellation, has publicly contradicted media reports regarding the number of guests in his establishment, stating the information is false and demanding a correction.

Jacques Moretti stated in a newspaper interview that he wants to reveal the truth about a fire disaster but is only willing to speak extensively in court.

Jacques Moretti, who was excused from an April 7 hearing due to reported depression, was reportedly seen actively working in one of his restaurants in Crans-Montana.

Jacques Moretti's scheduled interrogation by the public prosecutor on Tuesday was postponed indefinitely after he failed to appear, with a doctor's certificate confirming he was unfit for questioning.
