(ANSA) Rome, October 3 - "Europe has done much more than
the Italian Government" to help two Italian marines charged by
India with killing two fishermen, European Commission
Vice-President Antonio Tajani claimed Friday.
"Even now I have no certainty that the Italian government
has made an official request to the European Union to intervene
over the detention in India of the two non-commissioned
officers, (Salvatore) Girone and (Massimiliano) Latorre," Tajani
said.
Latorre is currently in Italy on a four-month sick leave
to treat a stroke-like condition.
The former spokesman for ex-premier Silvio Berlusconi made
his remarks during a 'shadow trial' staged by the Dreyfus
Tribunal, an association founded to champion the rights of
people who are wrongfully accused.
Tajani is one of the EC's 14 vice-presidents.
