Italian newspaper warned of threat to assassinate Berlusconi
http://feeds.bignewsnetwork.com/?sid=317298

An Italian newspaper said Friday it had received a letter containing two blank bullets and threats against former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi.

The letter warns Berlusconi faces a fate similar to slain Pakistani political leader Benazir Bhutto.

The letter - the bullets attached to it with adhesive tape - was posted to the Milanese daily Il Giornale, owned by Berlusconi's brother, Paolo, who also received 'threats of an Islamic character' in the letter, the newspaper said.

The bullets, the letter and a yellow envelope in which it had been sent were handed over to anti-terrorism police, Il Giornale said.
