Former TV and cinema impresario
Lele Mora on Tuesday plea-bargained a prison sentence of one
year and six months in connection with a case regarding the
bankruptcy of one of his companies and a 2.8 million loan given
to the manager by ex-premier Silvio Berlusconi.
According to prosecutors, Berlusconi in 2010 lent the money
to Mora through an assistant, manager Giorgio Spinelli, but Mora
did not use it to salvage his ailing company, Lm Management.
State attorneys also allege that part of Berlusconi's money
went to former Berlusconi anchorman Emilio Fede.
In 2014, Mora was given a six-year prison sentence for
pimping on behalf of the three-time premier and media mogul,
together with Fede and a dental assistant-turned-politician,
Nicole Minetti, and for the bankruptcy of his Lm Management.
After the plea-bargain deal requested by Mora's attorneys
and prosecutor Eugenio Fusco and ratified by judge Donatella
Banci Buonamici, Mora will serve the two prison sentences with
community service.
