Excerpt:

Italian police have actually arrested six people implicated of attempting to extort ex-Premier Silvio Berlusconi for EUR35 million ($ 45 million) in exchange for documents they claimed could possibly assist him in a legal case. Milan police squad chief Alessandro Giuliano said Monday that three of the six had actually held one of Berlusconi's closest advisors hostage for 11 hours in his house last month till he reached Berlusconi by phone to demand the money. Berlusconi's lawyer, Nicolo Ghedini, told reporters he talked to the hostage-takers that day and declined to offer them any type of cash till he saw the documents. Evidently that's all that was needed to cost-free Berlusconi's treasurer, Giuseppe Spinelli. Police later recognized the ringleader by his red and black tennis shoes -- colors of his preferred team AC Milan, which Berlusconi possesses.
