Rome, Sept 1: Italian police arrested a businessman Thursday on charges of extorting money from Premier Silvio Berlusconi in return for cooperating in a probe over recruiting prostitutes to attend wild parties at Berlusconi's home.
Giampaolo Tarantini and his wife Angela Devenuto were picked up in Rome on Thursday morning, police in Naples said. Berlusconi is not under investigation.
Tarantini has admitted he paid a high-end prostitute, Patrizia D'Addario, and other women to attend parties at Berlusconi's residences, but insists the premier didn't know. He is currently under investigation in Bari for allegedly aiding and abetting prostitution.
