Man ‘can’t remember’ killing controller

A RUSSIAN architect has told investigators he may have stabbed to death an air traffic controller he blamed for the deaths of his wife and children in a mid-air plane collision, but could not remember doing so.

Vitaly Kaloyev told investigators he went to Peter Nielsen's house seeking an apology, said a Zurich district prosecutor's statement.

Mr Kaloyev spoke to Mr Nielsen, but then lost control and could remember no more about what happened. "Maybe he killed him," the statement said.
