In Monaco, a Ukrainian citizen has been remanded in custody in connection with the death of Antoine de Massy, a member of the princely family.
This was reported by Monaco’s public prosecutor, according to Le Figaro.
The body of the 29-year-old grandson of Princess Antoinette was found on Sunday on the seafront in the Larvotto district. According to the post-mortem examination, the man died as a result of a fall from a height of 13 metres.
