# Silvio Berlusconi proposes a law to protect himself from proscution
|
|
|
|
## The Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, has proposed a new law
|
|
preventing magistrates pursuing elected officials.

|
The 74-year-old prime minister has been under mounting pressure to resign
|
|
since magistrates in Milan accused him of paying for sex with a 17-year-old
|
|
nightclub dancer who goes by the name "Ruby the Heart Stealer".
|
|
|
|
In a televised address, a tense-looking Mr Berlusconi once again denied having
|
|
sex with the Moroccan runaway and laid into the judiciary for waging a "true
|
|
and real persecution" of him.
|
|
|
|
Mr Berlusconi, who had already dismissed calls to resign, promised to take his
|
|
battle to parliament - though any reform will be difficult to pull off since a
|
|
split with ally Gianfranco Fini last year cost him a secure majority in
|
|
parliament.
