Milan: Hollywood star George Clooney testified before a Milan court as part of a trial of a fraud case involving three men accused of using the actor`s name for a fashion label. The 49-year-old actor, dressed in an elegant blue suit, responded to Judge Pietro Caccialanza`s questions with the help of an interpreter during the 90-minute hearing Friday.
Clooney said he didn`t know the three men accused of fooling suppliers by using the actor`s name for his clothing label at a fashion show in Milan. The alleged fraud came to light in 2008 when police seized dozens of articles of the clothing brand before they were to be displayed by models at the fashion show. IANS
