Italian marine in legal case hospitalized in India

One of the two Italian marines detained in India, Massimiliano Latorre, has been hospitalized in New Delhi and is responding well to treatment in the neurology department, doctors there said Monday. Defence Minister Roberta Pinotti is flying to New Delhi to check on his condition and to show support for Latorre’s family members who are with him in India.

Doctors treating Latorre said they were “pleased with how he responded to the first treatment,” according to a statement from the Italian defence ministry. Latorre and Salvatore Girone are living at the Italian embassy in New Delhi after being detained in connection with the shooting deaths of two Indian fishermen during an anti-piracy mission in 2012.
