The Moroccan embassy in Italy has lambasted charges by a former Italian MP who finger-pointed the embassy in the death of Imane Fadil, a Moroccan-Italian key witness in trials involving Ex-Premier Silvio Berlusconi. The late model in her agony told her family and lawyer she feared she had been poisoned. Reports with police sources suggested that post mortem toxicology tests revealed the presence of radioactive substance in her body. Judges cleared the former Italian leader and media magnet noting that he was not aware the Morocco-born sex worker was a minor. Berlusconi also denied knowing Imane Fadil who had said in her last public comments in January that she has suffered from the former Premier and his entourage who tried several times to bribe her.
