ROME — An investigator said Thursday that DNA tests show the latest suspect in the slaying of a British university student in Perugia had sex with the victim the night she was stabbed to death.

The suspect, Ivory Coast national Rudy Hermann Guede, was arrested in Germany on Tuesday. He has denied involvement in the slaying.

His attorney, Valter Biscotti, said he has not spoken with his client and could not comment on the development.

Genetic samples taken from Guede’s possessions matched fluids taken from the body of Meredith Kercher during an autopsy, the Italian news agency ANSA reported.
