Four brothers, aged four to 10, have all been killed when the ceiling of their bedroom collapsed in Argentina which is believed to have been caused by five tonnes of rubble stored on the roof.
The mother after losing four sons who were killed after a roof collapsed on their bedroom in Argentina recounted her tragedy.
Mum Pamela Nisi, 37, said: ‘My four children have died, I feel like I’m dying. I don’t want to live anymore.
‘My twins Benicio and Noah, and Lolo and Santino all went to heaven. They left me, mummy’s angels. Tell me it’s all just a nightmare. For God’s sake, my children, no!
She added: ‘Who can take this pain away from me? I can’t take it anymore. Why is life so unfair to me? I miss you my Lolo, my Santi and my babies.’
Ms Nisi’s 51-year-old boyfriend, Catalino Daniel Lopez, who was carrying out DIY work, has been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter.
A few hours before the tragedy, Lopez had cleared a patio and put the rubble on the roof with the weight thought to have caused the collapse, reported Clarin.
The family only moved into Lopez’s house, which was believed to be old and in a poor condition, two weeks beforehand.
The mother, who had six children with four different partners, had only met Lopez recently, it was reported.
Pamela has two other children, aged 15 and 18.The eldest lives in San Justo but Valentine, 15, was outside the room and notified emergency services.
He survived because he had noticed dust falling from the ceiling and had got up to tell his mum what was happening before the roof of the house gave way.
Santino’s father Pablo Ezequiel told local media: ‘On Sunday, they put rubble on the roof and we believe that’s why the structure gave way.
‘They wanted to clear the patio and instead of putting it on the street, they put it on the roof.
‘That weight – we think – made it collapse.
‘Meanwhile, family members and neighbours launched a crowdfunding campaign to raise money for the victims’ funeral expenses.
The municipality of Esteban EcheverrÃa told Clarin that ‘experts were working to evaluate the collateral risks’ involved in the accident and that ‘the rubble was removed by workers so that specialists could put together a report for the prosecution.’
The investigation into the incident is ongoing.
Meanwhile, family members and neighbours have launched a crowdfunding campaign to raise money for the victims’ funeral expenses.
Investigators told how Lopez had stored the building material directly above the boys’ bedroom just hours before the cave-in.
He had been planning to make an extension to the home.
He and Pamela had known each other through work for eight years but had only started dating a few months ago.
