A man convicted then cleared of murdering a British student in Italy almost five years ago has described his nightmare after her death in a new book.
Meredith Kercher, a 21-year-old from Leeds University, was found semi-naked with her throat cut in a house she shared with American student Amanda Knox in November 2007.
Knox and ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were convicted in 2009 of killing Miss Kercher, from Coulsdon, Surrey, but their convictions were overturned last year. Rudy Guede, a drug dealer from the Ivory Coast, was convicted of sexual assault and murder.
