A Moldovan dancer who was on the bridge of the Costa Concordia with Captain Francesco Schettino has admitted she was his lover. Giving evidence at his trial, Domnica Cemortan refused three times to say whether she was having an affair, before the judge threatened her with criminal charges.
Finally she said: "Yes, I had a relationship with him. Stop. Now, could we please move onto more important things."
The captain has acknowledged fault in the trial, but his defence team is arguing the ship sank in part because watertight doors did not function on the ship. Thirty two people were killed when the cruise ship hit rocks of the Tuscan island of Giglio in January 2012.
Captain Schettino faces multiple charges of manslaughter and abandoning ship. If convicted he could be sentenced to up to 20 years in prison. Report by Sarah Johnston.
