http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/5159198.stm Quote:
An Italian judge has ruled that former PM Silvio Berlusconi should stand trial over alleged fraud concerning his family's media company Mediaset.
He is one of 14 people sent for trial by Judge Fabio Paparella in the northern city of Milan.
It follows an investigation into claims of embezzlement, false accounting, tax fraud and money laundering in TV rights deals between 1994 and 1999.
The trial is set to begin in November. Mr Berlusconi denies any wrongdoing.
