The priest who officiated
the funeral for Giulio Regeni on Friday expressed thanks in his
homily to the Italian student slain in Egypt.
"Thank you for this work of witnessing that involves us
all. Thank you, thank you, and thank you still," said Father
Luigi Fontanot, who was one of Regeni's personal friends.
"Giulio was a special person, for his enthusiasm, for his
desire for knowledge," Fontanot said.
The priest recalled the way Regeni expressed the concepts
of freedom and friendship: "Freedom is the ability to express
yourself in a certain context; friendship is an unconditional
relationship between two people".
