ROME — The Vatican on Monday announced interrogations and subsequent arrests of a cleric and of a laywoman, former insiders accused of passing confidential information on financial affairs to Italian journalists.

 

Spanish Monsignor Lucio Angel Vallejo Balda and Italian Francesca Chaouqui, who both served on a now-defunct financial reform commission, were identified by Vatican investigators as potential sources of leaked documents for two new books, set to hit the shelves in Italy this week, about Vatican finances.

Advance PR materials for both books have promised scores of previously secret Vatican documents, outlining various financial scandals. Scissors-32x32.pnghttp://www.cruxnow.com/church/2015/11/02/vatican-arrests-two-in-latest-probe-of-leaked-documents/
