In response to the question about the weapon, defendant 1 confirmed that defendant 2 asked the deceased several times to leave the weapon in the car, and to the question of where he had placed it, he replied that when they arrived at the car to pick up the body, the gun was on the driver's seat and from there they took it (ibid., at paras. 104-111).
When asked what he would say if Defendant 2 said in his interrogation that Defendant 1 was the one who planned and committed the murder, he replied that he was ready to confront him. To the question of whether, as far as he was concerned, defendant 2 was the one behind the plot to murder the deceased, he answered in the affirmative and said that it was because of money (paras. 112-117). He later said that he was on friendly terms with the deceased and had no quarrel with him; And to the question of why, then, to murder him in such a brutal way, he replied, "It's not that I planned to murder him (an unclear word), I wasn't part of the agenda... It just turned out that way... It's not that I planned, it's not that I came and deliberately beat him in order to murder him, it all happened too fast, it's not, I don't even know how to define it, it was just a boom boom and a pinetto" (P/7 S. 178-190, P/7C, p. 21).

According to him, that day Defendant 2 stayed to sleep with him and told him that he had the money to buy the drugs, so he spoke to the deceased on the phone and they agreed that the deceased would bring him the drugs home, and that the next day Defendant 2 would bring him the money. The next afternoon, while he was at work, the deceased brought the drugs to his home and left them in the living room (P/8A, pp. 4-7).
