Sunday,
12 May, 2013. Silvio Berlusconi's Mediaset broadcaster Canale 5 airs
a two-hour documentary to demonstrate prosecutors sex-related charges
against the former prime minister are groundless (at least to the
public opinion), as a last act of a counteroffensive against the Italian judiciary.

Silvio Berlusconi's stand is that the dinners where young girls and women were
invited (some of them were just kept at hand in the bunga-bunga army) were pretty “normal soirĂ©es” and that his guests “kept
their cloths on”. Prosecution thinks he has been running aprostitution ring.
They find it difficult to reconcile the two different positions.
The
broadcast was following a protest against Italian judiciary, a
demonstration that took place in Brescia the day before. Among the
others, also Angelino Alfano – Italian Minister of the Interior as
well as vice prime minister – decided to take part in the
demonstration, which may sound odd to foreign observers.
Apart
from this, Karima El-Mahroug keeps saying she is not (and she wasn't)
a prostitute. And in the beginning of April she staged asmall-scale-protest to state her case.
