Nazi funeral: diocese of Rome, unacceptable episode

(ANSA) - ROME, JAN 11 - The Vicariate of Rome "deplores confirmation of what happened yesterday, in front of the parish of Santa Lucia, completely without the knowledge of the parish priest Don Alessandro Zenobbi and all the parish clergy, at the end of the celebration of a funeral", when on coffin was placed a flag with the Nazi swastika, "a horrible symbol irreconcilable with Christianity".

The diocese of Rome speaks of "serious, offensive and unacceptable ideological exploitation" and confirms what was said by the parish priest Don Zenobbi: "What happened outside the church took place without any authorization".
