No trial for Berlusconi in TV rights case

June 27, 2012

ROME, June 27 — A judge today decided there were not enough grounds to send former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi (picture), his son PierSilvio and 10 other people to trial on tax evasion charges in a probe of alleged tax evasion involving TV rights.

Berlusconi and the others from his Mediaset networks were accused of tax fraud involving €10 million (RM39.9 million) in 2004 and 2005. — Reuters
