Berlusconi skips hearing
Premier Silvio Berlusconi skipped a hearing Friday in a trial accusing him of bribing a British lawyer to lie on the stand.
Berlusconi had not been expected at the technical hearing, his lawyer Niccolo Ghedini said, adding that the premier would attend when there were issues of substance at hand, beginning next month.
