Italian Marines arrested in Kerala




Kerala police has arrested two Italian marine commandos, from Italian oil tanker Enrica Lexie  berthed in Kochi port, who shot dead two unarmed fishermen off coast Kerala. The arrested, Latore Massimiliano and Salvatore Girone,  were part of the six member commando team guarding the ship. They were brought to shore and handed over to Kollam city police in charge of investigation of the incident.

The fishermen, Ajesh Binki (25) and Jalastein (45), were killed on Feb. 15, off coast Kollam, when the guards of the ship fired at their boat, suspecting them pirates.


A case of murder has been registered in Kollam in connection with the incident.
