"I am innocent, I want to speak to my lawyer and the American consulate first."

Thus Francis Kaufmann, the man accused of the double murder of Anastasia Trofimova and her daughter Andromeda in Villa Pamphili , limited himself to answering the Italian prosecutors during a video link from the court in Larissa, Greece.

The 46-year-old therefore availed himself of the right to remain silent in the context of an investigative act requested by the Rome Prosecutor's Office through a European Investigation Order (EIO) at which the local investigating judge was also present.

Meanwhile, a hearing is scheduled for tomorrow before the Greek Court of Appeal which will have to examine the extradition request made by the Italian authorities .
