Italian police defuse bomb after Blair's visit
2004-08-18
Italian police have defused a bomb near the Sardinian holiday villa of Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi just hours after a visit by Tony Blair. Police said early on Wednesday morning they were seeking a possible second bomb after a local lefist group said it had planted two devices. Blair and his wife Cherie had left Sardinia a few hours earlier after a brief stay at Berlusconi's luxury retreat and the island was under heightened security patrols.
