AGI (Italy)

(AGI) Vatican City – The spokesperson for the Holy See, Father Federico Lombardi, has reminded journalists that cardinals “respond to the Holy Father”. “I doubt that cardinals will be questioned in the current situation,” Lombardi added. “I don’t think it is up to Inspector Giani [the head of Italy’s Gendarmeria] or the head of the Vatican judiciary [Nicola] Picardi to decide whether or not to interrogate cardinals if there is a charge against them,” Lombardi continued.
