Amanda Knox and her former boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito will find out today whether they face a retrial for the murder of Coulsdon student Meredith Kercher.

Italian Supreme Court judges are expected to decide whether the pair should stand trial again or whether their acquittal in 2011 should be confirmed.

Meredith, 21, was found semi-naked with her throat cut in the bedroom of the house she shared with Miss Knox and two other women in Perugia, in November 2007.

The Leeds University student had only been in Italy for two months as part of a year long course as part of her degree, before she was killed.

Yesterday, Meredith's sister Stephanie spoke of "'unanswered questions" surrounding her sister's death and that her family still get messages of support from all over the world.

Miss Knox, 25 and Mr Sollecito, 28, spent four years in jail before they were cleared of Miss Kercher's death.

Neither will be in court today and the case will be using paperwork and legal documents with no new witness evidence.
