Kercher 'Killer' Sollecito 'Held Near Border'

Raffaele Sollecito, the man re-convicted of Meredith Kercher's murder, has been held by police at Italy's border with Slovenia.

Sollecito was apprehended by police at a hotel in an area near Udine.

Sollecito is apparently being held in a police station

Giovanni Belmonte, of the Udine police, said officers held the 29-year-old in Venzone, at 1am - about 30 miles from the border with Slovenia.

Sky's Nick Pisa, in Italy, said Sollecito had been staying at the Carnia hotel with his current girlfriend Greta.

Police took his passport and put a stamp in his Italian identity papers showing that he cannot leave the country, Mr Belmonte said.

He is expected to be freed later.

Sollecito was given a 25-year jail term after being found guilty in the latest court case.

He had been in the courtroom earlier on Thursday but left before the verdicts were delivered.

He and Amanda Knox were originally found guilty of murder in 2009, and were handed jail terms totalling more than 50 years.

They were cleared nearly two years later - but the appeal court ordered a fresh trial in March last year.

Rudy Guede, a drug dealer, is serving a 16-year sentence over the death - though the courts have said he did not act alone.

Yesterday, after lengthy deliberations, the Italian court heard that both were guilty.
