New Delhi: Massimiliano Latorre, one of the Italian marines facing murder charges in India, has submitted a request to the Supreme Court to allow him to return to Italy for his “more rapid and complete recovery” after he suffered a condition similar to a mild stroke. Mr Latorre’s lawyers have submitted a request to the apex court for his return to Italy to allow his more rapid and complete recovery. An initial hearing is to be held on Monday.
The Italian Defence Minister, Roberta Pinotti, flew down to check on his condition and to show support for his family members. The Italian foreign minister, Federica Mogherini, had said in Rome, “It is a priority for the government to bring back the two Italian marines back to the country.”
