Italian Marine Massimiliano Latorre, who along with a colleague is accused of killing two Indian fishermen in 2012, moved the Supreme Court on Tuesday seeking extension of his stay in Italy on medical grounds.

A bench comprising justices A R Dave and Kurian Joseph fixed the plea of Latorre for hearing on April 9.

Latorre, who had undergone a cardiac surgery in Italy in January this year, has sought the extension saying that recently he had developed certain medical complications and the court be pleased to extend his stay on this ground.

On January 14, the apex court had granted three months extension to Latorre to stay in his country on medical grounds after the Centre said there was no objection on his plea on humanitarian ground.
