Milan prosecutors have ordered that the corpse of Moroccan model Imane Fadil be kept in total isolation and that no one, not even family members, are to be allowed to even see it unless authorised by them.
A murder investigation is under way in Italy after the death of the Moroccan model who testified against former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi in 2012.
Fadil, 34, died on 1 March in a Milan hospital, a month after being admitted with stomach pains. At the time she said she had been poisoned.
There are allegations in the Italian media that she may have been poisoned with radioactive substances which are not normally available for purchase.
She was a key witness against Berlusconi, who was accused of paying for sex with an underage prostitute.
Fadil had told reporters in 2012 that she feared for her safety after she admitted to prosecutors that she had been offered money to remain silent about the details of Berlusconi’s parties. Berlusconi denies ever meeting Fadil.
