Rabat – Moroccan-Italian Francesca Chaouqui, who faces multiple charges in the Vatican for her involvement in the Vatileaks scandal, has reportedly been sentenced to eight months in prison for using her deceased aunt’s residence card to park in the center of Rome without difficulties for six years.
Francesca Chaouqui, an Italian public relations consultant who was accused of leaking classified documents to journalists, was sentenced on charges of fraud and falsifying identity papers.
The former Vatican adviser was found guilty of misusing a parking pass for her disabled aunt, who died in 2008.
The pass gave her the right to enter and park in a traffic-free area in central Rome, as well as in places reserved for the disabled.
