Photographs of topless women lounging at Silvio Berlusconi's holiday villa were published by a Spanish newspaper despite attempts by the Italian prime minister to have them banned. A picture showing two young women dressed only in thongs relaxing in the landscaped garden in Sardinia was among the five images. Mr Berlusconi was also pictured walking in the garden beside another young woman, who was clothed. Another photograph showed a naked man by an outdoor pool. All the guests had their faces obscured and none was identified.
