The defense lawyer of confessed
torturer and murderer Manuel Foffo said Wednesday his client
told a preliminary investigations judge during an eight-hour
interrogation that accomplice Marco Prato gave victim Luca
Varani the death blow. "Foffo confirmed that Prato used the
knife," lawyer Michele Andreano said. Foffo (also) named many
witnesses who came and went from the apartment where the crime
took place, the lawyer said. However Prato's defence lawyer
denied his client inflicted the final blow. "Marco Prato did
not... stab Varani in the heart," said lawyer Pasquale Bartolo.
