Assuming that it is a problem with Geany :).
More seriously, what terminal emulation are you using in Geany and in
general? I.e. what program did you use to test your script outside of
Geany and what is configured in Geany's preferences on the Tools tab as
Terminal application. I assume you are using two different apps and the
one configured in Geany doesn't handle UTF-8 properly. Though, I might
be wrong. 


Another idea: in the above mentioned command you used "python3", do you
also this command in Geany? By default Geany uses the command "python"
which might point to an installed Python 2.5 or 2.6.
You can easily change the Run command in Geany via Build->Set Includes
and Arguments.

HTH,
Enrico
