Italian court confirms Prodi election win-Sky TG24

ROME, Apr 19 (Reuters) Italy's supreme court has confirmed that centre-left leader Romano Prodi won last week's general election, Sky TG24 television said today.

The 24-hour news channel did not give any sources for its report.

The supreme court was due to announce the final results for the April 9-10 ballot later today. Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has refused to concede defeat in the election, saying the vote was hit by widespread fraud.
