Berlusconi escort claims attacks, threats after sleeping with him

London, November 23 : Silvio Berlusconi has landed amid fresh allegations that threaten to further taint his reputation following claims made by an escort girl that she was attacked and threatened after sleeping with the Italian Prime Minister.

Patrizia D’Addario made the disclosures about Berlusconi’s private life in her memoirs that apparently detail her meetings with the 73-year-old politician.

Extracts from the book, entitled Gradisca, Presidente (Take Your Pleasure, Prime Minister), were published in the left-wing newspaper Il Fatto Quotidiano, reports Times Online.

D’Addario described last year’s night of the US election that she spent with Berlusconi and subsequently handed out audio and video recordings of the encounter to the magistrates in Bari.

She claimed she received anonymous phone calls after returning, that tagged her a “whore and a bitch”.

D’Addario further claimed that her mother was assaulted by a man who said: “This is to teach your whore of a daughter a lesson”, while a man pretending to offer protection as a former cop ransacked her flat and tried to rape her.

She went on to further allege an attack on her life when she was forced off the road after a car tried to ram her from behind while driving from Bari to Bitonto.

Berlusconi has been dogged by revelations about his relations with showgirls and escorts since May, the paper said.
