ROME — Four days after being attacked at a political rally, Premier Silvio Berlusconi was whisked away from a Milan hospital with his face covered in bandages, an unusual sight from a politician and media mogul long obsessed with controlling his image.
A man with a history of psychological problems hurled a souvenir statue of Milan’s cathedral into the premier’s face Sunday, breaking Berlusconi’s nose and two teeth. The attacker, identified as Massimo Tartaglia, 42, remains in prison.
