Walter Biot, an Italian navy captain
charged with spying for Russia, will ask to be quizzed by
prosecutors in the coming days, his lawyer said Friday.
"Our goal is to show that the role played by Walter Biot did not
give access to documents of a strategic level, documents that in
any way concerned State security," said the lawyer, Roberto De
Vita.
The judge who remanded Biot in custody Thursday said the alleged
spy took pictures of at least 181 pages of classified documents
including top secret ones.
Italy has expelled two Russian officials in the case.
