Former captain, currently on trial, claims inhabitants of Italian island profited from operation by renting balconies with views to spectatorsAs the Costa Concordia shipwreck made its way north on Thursday after successfully departing from Giglio, former captain Francesco Schettino provoked a new furore after accusing people on the island of profiteering from the disaster.Speaking from the southern island of Ischia near Naples where he was photographed partying last weekend, Schettino said he did not want to speak about the ship’s departure before going on to criticise residents.“They are speculating about my presence on an island in Campania, while the real exploitation of a tragedy is happening on Giglio where they are renting balconies with a view of the Concordia’s departure,” Schettino told Italian media.
