Extradition of Giulia's killer (22) is being examined

Title: Examining Giulia's Murder Suspect's Extradition

Venice/Halle – The shocking murder of 22-year-old Giulia C. has left authorities seeking justice. Her suspected killer: ex-boyfriend Filippo T. (22), who fled to Germany and is currently in pre-trial detention in Saxony-Anhalt since his arrest last Saturday.

While Filippo's potential extradition is a topic of discussion, it remains unclear when or if the court will approve this process. As a European Arrest Warrant (EAW) had been issued, Italy can expedite the extradition proceedings.

Before the judiciary can make a decision regarding the suspected murderer's extradition, the Higher Regional Court in Naumburg requires an application from the Public Prosecutor General. At the time of writing, this application has not been received.

On the A9, a Fugitive's End

Filippo's harrowing pursuit began when he allegedly abducted his former girlfriend, Giuliana, killed her, and disposed of her body in a ravine. His arrest ensued after a week-long manhunt: when police checked on Giuliana's body, he approached them without resistance, leading to his capture on the A9 highway.

The couple had been together for 1.5 years before splitting up in the summer.

Italian media reports suggest that Filippo was apprehended with knives during his arrest on the A9. Meanwhile, German regional news cites that he remains in pre-trial detention, awaiting approval for his extradition to Italy.
