Berlusconi’s party girls dressed as nuns, Obama

Silvio Berlusconi’s private disco featured women dressed not just as sexy nuns and nurses, but also as President Barack Obama and a prominent Milan prosecutor that the former Italian premier has accused of persecuting him.

The Moroccan woman at the centre of a sex scandal involving Berlusconi testified in court for the first time, describing how a young woman attending one of Berlusconi’s “bunga bunga” parties dressed up like a nun, danced provocatively and stripped down to her underwear for the former premier.

Karima el-Mahroug took the witness stand in the trial of three former Berlusconi aides charged with recruiting her and other women for prostitution. They deny the charges.
