Berlusconi corruption trial to continue
Judges say prime minister Silvio Berlusconi’s trial on corruption charges will continue, despite a ruling by Italy’s highest appellate court that overturned the conviction of the British lawyer the Italian leader allegedly bribed.
Three judges today rebuffed a bid by Berlusconi’s defence lawyers to suspend his trial until the high court makes public its reasons in concluding the statute of limitations had run out in the case of David Mills.
