A teenage Moroccan model has made this claimA teenage Moroccan model has claimed she slept with Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi in return for a cash "gift".
The girl, identified only as Ruby and allegedly an illegal immigrant, claims that she had consensual sex with the prime minister at his luxury villa in Arcore, outside Milan, according to Italian press reports.
Prosecutors have reportedly opened a dossier on the claims but not a formal investigation. They stressed that Berlusconi is not under investigation and that they are trying to verify the woman's account of the alleged encounter.
But a newspaper owned by Berlusconi's brother, described the allegations as a potential sex scandal and another D'Addario case a reference to Patrizia D'Addario, the prostitute who last year claimed that she slept with the prime minister at his mansion in Rome.
Magistrates cautioned that the Moroccan woman's claims might be without foundation and could be part of a plot to blackmail the 74-year-old premier, or an attempt at self-promotion by the aspiring showgirl.
The teenager, who is now 18, claims that she attended several private parties thrown by Berlusconi at his home between last year and this spring, at a time when she was trying to break into modelling or television.
She was part of a circle of aspiring models and actresses who were allegedly introduced to the prime minister by a prominent show business agent, Lele Mora.
