The young man was surprised with his friend in possession of drugs. It is accused of international trafficking.

ATHENS - Luca Zanotti was extradited. The young man was arrested on Tuesday morning to be delivered to the Greek authorities, as decided by the Cassation. The Italian Supreme Court has allowed the greek government to hold Luca until the trial.

IN PRISON - At the trial Zanotti risks to be sentenced up to 10 years in prison. The twenty years old boy from Rimini, who should be conducted in jail in the town of Kalamata, is accused of 'international trafficking, possession and trafficking of drugs', for being surprised with the friend, David D'Orsi, with 21 grams of hashish, which they brought with them into the Peloponnese, in 2005.

THE PROCESS - The father of Luca, Paolo Zanotti, plans to fly to Greece to help his son, to stay by his side as he has done in the recent months. Maybe already next Saturday: "When he left - says the parent from the Police Station - Luca was serene." The lawyers seem optimistic about the timing of the process: "It seems that we can anticipate it. It could be held within one month."
