The family of Silvio Berlusconi has started legal proceedings to evict 20 women whom he allowed to stay in his properties as compensation for their involvement in his multiple prostitution trials, Italy’s Corriere della Sera newspaper reported on Friday.
Berlusconi, who died of leukemia in June, was found not guilty in February of paying 24 models and showgirls to give false testimony in a 2014 trial in which he was accused of paying an underage Moroccan prostitute for sex. Berlusconi did not deny paying the women stipends and allowing them to live at his properties, but claimed that these gifts were given as compensation for the reputational damage suffered by the women during the trials.
