ROME (Reuters) - An Italian court sentenced former foreign minister Gianfranco Fini to two years and eight months in jail after he was convicted for his role in the sale of a Monte Carlo apartment by his political party.
Elisabetta Tulliani, Fini's partner, was handed a five-year sentence by the court in Rome, while her brother Giancarlo Tulliani got six years and their father Sergio Tulliani five years. Fini was in court to hear the verdict.
