"I met Silvio Berlusconi three times in Milan while I was Latvian". The boss of Cosa Nostra Giuseppe Graviano, already sentenced to life imprisonment, said by videoconferencing in the trial "'ndrangheta stragista", in which he is accused, in progress in Reggio Calabria. Graviano is answering questions from the Reggio Calabria Assistant Prosecutor Giuseppe Lombardo.
"The statements made today by Giuseppe Graviano are totally and blatantly dismissed of any foundation, disconnected from reality and blatantly defamatory". This was stated in a note by Silvio Berlusconi's lawyer, lawyer. Niccolò Ghedini. "It should be observed - he continues - that Graviano denies his every responsibility even in the face of multiple final judgments that have sentenced him to multiple life sentences for very serious crimes".
"After 26 uninterrupted years of imprisonment - continues Ghedini - suddenly Mr. Graviano makes statements clearly aimed at obtaining procedural or prison benefits by inventing unlikely and invertible encounters, figures and episodes. Among other things, we understand perfectly well the deep hatred towards by President Berlusconi for all the laws promulgated by his governments against the Mafia. Obviously all the actions of the case will be carried out before the judicial authority ".
