Protestors are demanding Berlusconi's resignation following allegations he paid for sex with a 17-year-old girl and used his office to cover it up. Italian prosecutors want to put Italian Premier Berlusconi on trial for the allegations. Berlusconi has dismissed the allegations as a smear campaign. "I'm not worried in the slightest," Berlusconi said of the prostitution case. "I am a wealthy gentleman who can spend the rest of his life building hospitals for children like I've always wanted to." The banner reads: "Berlusconi, like this!". (AP Photo/Pier Paolo Cito) (AP)
