A Nigerian pusher accused of
complicity in the murder and dismemberment of 18-year-old Roman
drug addict Pamela Mastropietro in Macerata last month gave her
an "extremely modest" dose of heroin, judicial sources said
Thursday.
Desmond Lucky is nonetheless suspected of giving the woman,
who had been in a drug rehab centre and had not been using for
four months, a fatal dose.
Lucky is accused of complicity with another Nigerian,
Innocent Oseghale, in homicide, disposing of and disrespecting a
body in the case of Mastropietro, whose remains were found in
two suitcases at Pollenza outside Macerata.
It is has not been established if the young woman died of an
overdoes or was murdered, allegedly by Oseghale, in whose home
were found bloodstained knives.
Prosecutors said Thursday the initial findings of an autopsy
on Mastropietro had produced "no significant evidence" of how
she had died.
It said blood and urine were missing from the remains, which
had been sliced up in an "apparently scientific" way.
Further lab tests will be made next week, prosecutors said.
