Berlusconi died in June last year aged 86 having dominated Italian public life for a controversial three decades.
Marco Di Nunzio, a Turin entrepreneur living in the South American country, was arrested on the orders of the Colombian authorities, for the case of Berlusconi’s ‘phantom’ Colombian will.
In the meantime, Milan prosecutors Marcello Viola and Roberta Amadeo have closed the investigation in view of a request for trial for the 55-year-old.
He’s set to be charged for forgery of a will and attempted extortion against the late children of the charismatic and deeply divisive statesman.
Di Nunzio published a will in which he claimed that in front of a notary in the Colombian city of Cartagena Berlusconi bequeathed him 26 million euro, a yacht, villas in Antigua and 2 per cent of his media to banking and construction behemoth Fininvest.
