Italian marines sought by India are questioned
March 21, 2013
A military prosecutor in Rome today questioned two Italian marines who India is insisting must return to face trial in the deaths of two Indian fishermen reportedly mistaken for pirates.

The two marines, in full dress uniform, made no comment to reporters when they arrived at the military prosecutor's office, which had summoned them for its own probe of the 2012 shooting. 

India and Italy are in a bitter standoff over the case. The marines have been charged in India with killing two fishermen.
