Milan prosecutors on Monday
questioned the head of the Milan clinic where a Moroccan model
and key prosecution witness in a Ruby-Berlusconi witness
tampering trial died after saying she had been poisoned.
Imane Fadil, 34, was set to testify in the alleged bunga
bunga bribery case when she fell ill at the end of January.
She died March 1.
Partial results from a test have confirmed the presence of
radioactive elements in her body.
Milan prosecutor Francesco Greco told a press conference that
tests on biological liquids had shown above-normal levels of
antimony and cadmium, and they were awaiting definitive autopsy
results.
Silvio Berlusconi was convicted but eventually acquitted of
having paid for sex with teen Moroccan runaway exotic dancer and
underage prostitute Ruby the Heartstealer after judges ruled he
could not have known she was a minor.
He has since been indicted more than once on suspicion of
bribing witnesses to lie about the nature of his sex parties.
