An Italian man who broke Silvio Berlusconi's nose and teeth by striking him with a souvenir model has apologized to the Italian prime minister for his “cowardly and rash act”, the attacker's lawyers said. Berlusconi, 73, who allies say was left badly shaken and upset by the Sunday attack in a Milan rally , will be discharged from hospital Wednesday but must rest for at least two weeks, his personal doctor said.
