Norbert Feher, a 38-year-old Serbian know as ‘Igor the Russian’, was senteneced to life in jail for the murder.
Feher was found guilty of the murder on 1 and 8 April 2017 in the provinces of Bologna and Ferrara, of barman Davide Fabbri and volunteer environmental guard Valerio Verri .
Feher was indicted last April for the murders.
Feher is currently in jail in Zaragoza in Spain where he has been indicted for another three murders committed before he was arrested there in December 2017.
Feher alias Igor Vaclavic confessed to two murders in Italy and three in Spain before a Spanish magistrate in mid-December 2017.
But he refused to answer Italian prosecutors’ questions, exercising his right to remain silent.
Feher, 37, was captured on December 15 2017 after a shoot-out in Spain which three people, including two members of Spain’s Guardia Civil police, were killed. He said he arrived in Spain in September 2017 and agreed to be tried in Italy for the crimes he is accused of there.
Spain has said he will not be extradited to Italy until he has answered for the crimes he committed in Spain.
In Italy he has been charged with 11 crimes including murder, judicial sources said.
Feher, who was born in Serbia in 1981, said he had used 18 different identities in eight countries.
