Berlusconi faces homes search in prostitute row

Italian Premier Silvio Berlusconi had sex with several prostitutes, prosecutors claimed today, trying to get permission to search some of his homes.

They are leading a probe aimed at determining if the 74-year-old media mogul paid for sex with a 17-year-old Moroccan girl who attended parties at one of his villas last year. Prostitution is not a crime in Italy, but exploiting or aiding prostitution with minors is.
