New developments in the sort of tug of war that has arisen in recent days between the family of Emanuela Orlandi and the Holy See, after the conversation between Pietro Orlandi , brother of the young woman who disappeared under mysterious circumstances in 1983, with the promoter of Justice Alessandro Diddi and after the declarations of Pietro himself to "DiMartedì" which called Pope John Paul II into question .
The director of the Vatican press office, Matteo Bruni, reports: «The promoter of Justice Alessandro Diddi, together with the applied promoter, prof. Gianluca Peroni, met the lawyer Laura Sgrò, as she repeatedly and publicly requested, in the context of the open file on the story of the disappearance of Emanuela Orlandi, also to provide those elements, relating to the origin of some information in her possession , expected after the statements provided by Pietro Orlandi. The lawyer Sgrò opposed the professional secrecy ».
No names and no details, therefore, from Emanuela's brother's lawyer regarding her client's accusations against Wojtyla.
A silence so motivated by Sgrò herself: «My request to meet Diddi, in January, immediately after the news of the opening of the investigation, was clearly aimed at a meeting between the Promoter and Pietro, certainly not at my will to testify , as bound by professional secrecy".
"I clarified the misunderstanding and put it in the minutes," the lawyer explained to reporters. Adding: «My email is from 11 January. It has nothing to do with wanting to specify elements supplied by Pietro».
