Girone should return to Italy-tribunal (2)

(ANSA) - Rome, May 3 - The Hague arbitration tribunal for the case of two Italian marines accused of killing two Indian fisherman during an anti-piracy mission in 2012 confirmed Tuesday that it has ruled that Salvatore Girone should be allowed to return to Italy. "Italy and India shall cooperate, including in proceedings before the Supreme Court of India, to achieve a relaxation of the bail conditions of Sergeant Girone so as to give effect to the concept of considerations of humanity, so that Sergeant Girone... may return to Italy during the present Annex VII arbitration," it said.
    On Monday the Italian foreign ministry in Rome confirmed that the tribunal had upheld Italy's request for Girone to be allowed to return from India after ANSA broke the news. The other marine, Massimiliano Latorre, was allowed by India to return to Italy for treatment after he had a stroke in 2014.
