(see related stories) (ANSA) - ROME, NOV 20 - Giulia Cecchettin, the slain 22-year-old biomedical engineering student from Veneto, was kind but not stupid or naive, her sister said on Monday.
    "My sister was kinder, more gentle, more sensitive than anyone can imagine, a pure soul, an eternal child, but not in the sense of being stupid and naive," Elena Cecchettin told reporters.
    "She was a person who lived life lightly and without malice," she explained.
    "This morning I imagined my sister telling me 'Come on, on you go!," continued Cecchettin.
    "She used to tell me that I was a hoplite (a spear-carrying ancient Greek infantry soldier, ed.). When she was at classical high school, she told me that the hoplites were the warriors, and she always used to say that you have to have the strength of a hoplite," she said. (ANSA).
