Meredith killer: "not fair" I´m in jail

One of the brutal killers of tragic British student Meredith Kercher has whined that its "not fair" for him to be in jail after being found guilty of her murder.

Raffaele Sollecito - who killed Meredith with his former girlfriend Amanda Knox -taped a message for an Italian TV show on famous crimes.

"I've been living in jail for two years and four months and I can't take it any more," said Sollecito, serving 25 years for the murder of Italian exchange student Meredith in her apartment in Perugia, Italy.

"I have a right to freedom and it's not fair I have to suffer all this pain for nothing," he told the programme from his jail cell.

"I hope everybody will realise where the truth is," added Sollecito, who is appealing against his conviction.
