(ANSA) - ROME, NOV 19 - A Palestinian former prisoner in the same Cairo secret police facility as Giulio Regeni said in a video shown at the Rome trial in absentia of four Egyptian intelligence officers accused of torturing to death the Italian student that he had "seen Giulio blindfolded and exhausted by the torture".
    "Giulio Regeni was handcuffed with his hands behind his back, blindfolded," said the former detainee in a video of a documentary broadcast by Al Jazeera, and shown in the courtroom Tuesday.
    "I saw him again as he was leaving the interrogation, exhausted by torture. He was between two jailers who were carrying him on their shoulders. They were taking him back to the cells".
    Regeni, 28, a Cambridge university doctoral researcher into Cairo street unions, was allegedly tortured to death between February 25 and February 3 2016 after Egyptian security officers decided he was a spy. (ANSA).
