Italian minister escapes censure over G8 brutality
Italy's Interior Minister, Claudio Scajola, has survived a vote of no confidence over the police handling of the violent protests at the G8 summit in Genoa earlier this month.
The vote in the Senate was 180-106 in Scajola's favour, despite the fact that the police shot dead one unarmed protestor, 22-year-old Carlo Guiliani.
