Murder of Indian fishermen: Italy court dismisses case against accused marines

Published on Feb 01, 2022 05:18 pm IST

A Rome judge on Monday dismissed a murder investigation into two Italian marines who killed two fishermen in Kerala in 2012, months after the case was dropped by India's top court. It followed an assessment by prosecutors last month that there was not enough evidence for a trial. In a statement, Italian Defence Minister Lorenzo Guerini welcomed the "positive outcome" for Salvatore Girone and Massimiliano Latorre. Girone and Latorre shot dead the unarmed fishermen off the southern Indian coast in February 2012 while protecting an Italian oil tanker as part of an anti-piracy mission. Watch full video.
