ROME — Italian news reports say Premier Silvio Berlusconi is seeking to postpone the resumption of his fraud trial in Milan.
Berlusconi is accused of tax fraud in a trial over his broadcaster Mediaset's purchase of TV rights. The premier denies wrongdoing.
The trial had been frozen thanks to a law granting immunity to Berlusconi while in office. But the legislation was overturned last month because it violates the constitution, paving the way for the trial to resume.
