The slope manager of the Téléverbier ski resort has been sentenced to a conditional fine of two years for involuntary manslaughter following the fatal accident involving an Italian ski tourist in 2014. The cantonal court confirmed the first-instance verdict.

However, it significantly reduced the number of daily sentences from 90 to 36 due to the time that had elapsed. "The judiciary found a violation of the acceleration rule on its own initiative," the piste manager's lawyer, Julien Ribordy, told the Keystone-SDA news agency on Monday. The defense has not yet decided whether to take the case to the Federal Supreme Court.

In December 2014, a 24-year-old Italian skier crashed into a safety rope that was stretched between two padded wooden posts in Verbier. The rope was not signaled with a pennant or any other warning. The woman succumbed to her serious injuries in Sion hospital.
