Drunk-driver kicks up stink with perfume profits

ROME (Reuters) - An Italian man convicted for KILLING FOUR
teenagers while driving drunk has brought out his own 
gypsy-branded fashion line, raising questions about 
whether such activities are compatible with his sentence.
Marco Ahmetovic, a 22-year-old member of the Roma or 
gypsy minority, has hired an agent to market a range of 
perfumes, watches, jeans and sunglasses.
He was sentenced to 6-1/2 years detention but, in a 
controversial ruling, can spend most of that time UNDER 
HOUSE ARREST in return for cooperating [?????]
with the court.
So far no retail outlet has taken up the brand and it 
is only available on the auction site Ebay, with his watches 
priced at 159 euros each.
Ahmetovic, who killed the four teenage boys in April 
after driving his van onto a pavement while under the 
influence of alcohol, said he did not intend
to profit from "the shameful things that I have done".
Each product is stamped with the brand label, "LineaRom", 
and his agent Alesso Sundas has produced promotional photos 
of Ahmetovic's face with the caption "Don't be like me!".
With politicians urging an inquiry, Justice Minister 
Clemente Mastella said he would investigate whether "such 
lucrative activity" was compatible with Ahmetovic's sentence.
But Ahmetovic's agent was unrepentant.
"I'll hire out Ahmetovic for club appearances at 3,000 
euros a night. Why do I do this? Because I took a gamble 
-- to make a star of a person who has committed a crime. 
I'm not ashamed. It's my job," he told newspaper Corriere
della Sera.
