Cardinal Angelo Becciu denies Francesca Chaouqui: " It wasn't me who had her arrested ."
Today Chaouqui was heard as a witness in the trial on the funds of the Secretariat of State and before entering the Vatican she attacked the prelate of Pattada head on.
Becciu's reply was ready: « You will have understood it, she has something against me. Indeed, a lot against me. And one of the accusations that I completely deny is that I gave the order to arrest her and that I had no mercy on her condition as a pregnant woman ," the cardinal affirms.
"It's a lie, false, it happened in early November 2015," continues Becciu. « I was in my country, in Sardinia. The one who questioned her was Commander Giani and he telephoned me: 'I have arrested Mrs. Chaouqui'. I said to him: 'Are you crazy?'. 'No, I had every reason to do it'. Then he said later that he was pregnant, it was a few months. How can you see at three months? I totally deny the accusation."
