(ANSA) - Milan, March 24 - Prosecutors' case documents say that the woman at the centre of Silvio Berlusconi's bunga bunga sex scandal probably visited the ex-premier's home at Arcore, near Milan, in November and December last year. The documents relate to allegations Berlusconi bribed witnesses to perjure themselves in the original case, which culminated with the billionaire media magnate being cleared of knowingly paying for sex with an underage prostitute and abusing his power to try to cover up the affair. Moroccan-born Karima El Mahroug, known as Ruby, was 17 when she attended the so-called bunga bunga parties at Arcore in 2010.
Prosecutors wrote in documents for the related perjury case that "from the analysis carried out, it seems possible to state that... (El Mahroug) probably went to Arcore" in November and December 2014. They added that El Mahroug turned off her mobile telephone when she approached the area of the Arcore home, so her presence there could not be detected.
Young women who attended the parties at former premier Silvio Berlusconi's Arcore villa "all adored the evil dwarf", one former trial witness tells another in a wiretap released Tuesday.
The wiretaps are being carried out in the ongoing so-called Ruby-ter perjury investigation against witnesses at a trial that saw Berlusconi acquitted of sex with an underage prostitute.
"My boyfriend adores the evil dwarf, you adore the evil dwarf, we all adore him," Aris Espinosa told Imma De Vivo over the phone in a November 18 tapped conversation.
