It was said that Yostin Mosquera did require a Spanish interpreter during his first court appearance. I’ll find the source now but it seems to me he was not fluent in english if this is the case.
Man appears at Old Bailey after men's remains found in suitcases
“The defendant, a Colombian national, appeared via video link and was remanded into custody. He listened intently as his Spanish interpreter relayed proceedings.”
Legal language in Court is complex
so usually foreigners get interpreters,
making sure they understand everything.
But I also wonder what level his knowledge of English is.
Possibly just everyday simple phrases.
