First trip to Cesano Boscone for Silvio Berlusconi. This morning at 9 the former Knight arrived at the Holy Family institute to start social services, an alternative sentence to prison which he was sentenced at the end of the Mediaset trial for tax fraud. In these hours the former Premier will make contact with the operators and guests of the assistance and care center for elderly people with Alzheimer's. He shouldn't leave the facility before 30pm.
A protester from the grassroots trade union Cub was blocked inside the Holy Family Foundation as he attempted to get close to Berlusconi. "Italian workers have a dream in their hearts: Berlusconi at San Vittore," shouted the protester, dressed in a yellow costume and a black top hat, as the officers carried him out.
The man managed to reach the area reserved for the press a few seconds after the arrival of the former Knight, who did not notice his presence. Instead, the scene was observed from above by a family of Berlusconi sympathizers who live in a house overlooking the structure.
Meanwhile, waiting for the leader of Forza Italia outside the institute is a crowd of journalists from all over the world: French, German, English, but also Turkish and Japanese.
