PM Silvio Berlusconi, 74, said some nasty things recently about the nation he represents.
In police recorded phone conversations in July, he vows to leave Italy because it is a "sh###y country" and "sickens him".
Giampaola Tarantini and his wife were arrested in Roma...accused of receiving €500,000 from PM Silvio Berlusconi along with free rent...for negotiating a prosecution deal that would avoid a trial for a sex scandal involving Berlusconi two years ago.
Tarantini has admitted providing some 30 women for parties and dinners at Berlusconi's lavish Roma digs...with at least six women spending the night there.
