MILAN, Italy, Jan. 14 (UPI) -- Judges in former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's sex trial Monday rejected his request to suspend the case until after the general election.
The judges also said they won't demand testimony from the Moroccan teenage prostitute at the center of the case, relying instead on statements that Karima el-Mahroug, also known as Ruby, made to investigators, ANSA reported.
