Marò, Massimiliano Latorre questioned in the Prosecutor’s Office: “I am very serene, I hope they will be archived”

“Massimiliano Latorre was the victim of an attack by pirates, he was the first to communicate it to the prosecutors of Rome on February 16, 2012”. This is what has been said, based on what the defender of the sea reported at the end of the interrogation carried out today in the Prosecutor’s Office, by the Navy rifleman investigated in Piazzale Clodio for voluntary murder for the death of two Indian fishermen which took place nine years ago. For this affair, Salvatore Girone, another marò, is also registered in the register of suspects. To lose their lives were Valentine Jelastine and Ajeesh Pink, two fishermen embarked on an Indian fishing boat, off the coast of Kochi. «I can only say that I am very serene», the only words of Latorre when leaving the offices of the Prosecutor’s Office. The rifleman answered the questions of the prosecutor Erminio Amelio, owner of the file. “We are here also thanks to him – added defender Fabio Anselmo, – because he made the first communication of crime news to the prosecutors in Rome in the immediacy of the facts. He pointed out the risk that the Indian authorities could configure something different from what he had experienced: an attempted piracy attack ». The criminal lawyer said he was “satisfied” with the confrontation with the prosecutor. «With the magistrate we have reconstructed – added the defender – the circumstances in a serene way, very calm despite the past nine years and the health problems that Latorre had. I believe, however, that the reality and the truth of the facts emerged clearly ».

Today’s is the third interrogation carried out by Latorre over the years. “I believe that the magistrates have already made an idea – the defender said -, I do not think that the definition of the file will be very lacking. We want an archiving, but obviously we respect the decisions of the office ». In recent days, the prosecutor also listened to the other soldier involved in the affair. Now in piazzale Clodio the strings of the work carried out will be drawn to arrive, perhaps after the summer break, to a decision on the fate of the procedure. The investigation of the ordinary prosecutor experienced an acceleration in July last year after the International Court of The Hague decided in favor of Italy the jurisdictional competence. In recent months, the owner of the file has read and analyzed the file, over one hundred pages of documents, which came from Holland. In the file there are also the minutes of the first interrogation carried out. “We fired 7-8 shots into the sea to discourage the approach of a boat other than that shown by the Indian authorities,” said the two soldiers at the time. In 2013 the Prosecutor’s Office arranged an expert report on the computer and a camera that were on board the Enrica Lexie, the ship where the two soldiers were on duty. The conversations between the crew commander and the owner are recorded on the on-board pc, as well as the communications made by the Italian organizations while the images of the alleged pirate attack were stored on the camera.
