(ANSA) - Rome, April 28 - Former premier Silvio Berlusconi claimed Monday that his social-service sentence to help out at a senior citizens residence "is an enormous pleasure not representing any sacrifice - I probably will end up spending the whole day there".
But while Berlusconi made light of the time he must spend at an old folks' home as part of his tax-fraud sentence, the media mogul said that it has imposed "enormous restrictions" on his personal freedom.
