Berlusconi’s Milan housing complex branded a ‘whore house’

LONDON - Italian PM Silvio Berlusconi’s Milan housing complex has been branded a ‘whore house’, say prosecution documents sent to parliament.
The politician is already under investigation on suspicion of paying for sex with one of his guests, Karima el-Mahroug, a Moroccan belly dancer known as Ruby Rubacuori, when she was 17 - an offence under Italian law.
Prosecutors also claim to have “ample investigative evidence” that Berlusconi provided flats for the women in return for sex at the Milan housing complex he built in the 1970s before entering politics.
They outlined their case in a document sent to parliament to seek permission to raid the Milan offices of a Berlusconi accountant they suspect of handling payments to the women.
“You can’t even imagine what goes on there. The papers say a lot less than the truth, even when they massacre him,” The Guardian quoted one of women after a party at Berlusconi’s residence.
One woman called the residence a “whore house”. Another was reported as saying: “You are either ready for everything or you get a taxi and leave.” (ANI)
