After the confrontation of more than eight hours between Pietro Orlandi, Emanuela's brother, and the Vatican promoter of justice Alessandro Diddi, it certainly cannot be excluded that the investigation opened at the end of 2022 in the Vatican into the mysterious disappearance on June 22 of the 40-year-old makes the 15-year-old daughter of a salesman of the Prefecture of the Papal Household make progress so far, even unforeseen ones.
"I perceived the will to clarify. Diddi himself told me: 'I had a mandate from the Secretary of State and from Pope Francis to clarify 100%, to investigate at 360 degrees and not to discount anyone, from the grassroots at the top', and that for me is already a positive thing".
By depositing his memory, Pietro was able to include in the deeds of the
Orlandi case, brother Pietro: 'Found willingness to clarify'
"Of course, you have opened new worlds for us with the things you tell us", Diddi clearly told him, in addition to the fact that "there will be no untouchables".
Among the "excellent names" mentioned by Emanuela's brother to the magistrate, that of Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, current dean of the College of Cardinals and at the time of the disappearance of the fifteen-year-old Vatican citizen, substitute for General Affairs of the Secretariat of State.
"I'm not in good health and I don't want to give interviews", Re replied today to ANSA who asked him for comments.
But there are many open questions about what remains one of the greatest mysteries in Italian and Vatican history.
Among the documents produced by Orlandi, the four sheets of a chat, dating back to the early years of Francis' pontificate,
which talks about the case of Emanuela.
Among the interlocutors of this chat would be Cardinal Santos Abril y Castellò, president of the supervisory Commission of Cardinals of the IOR and archpriest emeritus of the papal basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore.
Further documentation mentions Emanuela's stay in England, reported the lawyer Sgrò, explaining however that she "must be analysed, also to understand if she is reliable".

A raised look is especially tricky.
"They tell me that Wojtyla sometimes went out in the evening with two Polish monsignors and certainly didn't go to bless the houses...", is the shocking sentence uttered last night by Orlandi to DiMartedì with which he reiterated his suspicions about the Polish Pope , made a saint on April 27, 2014, and generally on pedophilia in the Vatican during his pontificate.
Orlandi said among other things: "I am convinced that John Paul II,
Ratzinger and Francis are aware of what happened". He then played an audio file he delivered to the Vatican magistrate, in which the speaker would be a man close to the Magliana band: "Pope John Paul II took those , it was an untenable situation.
And so the secretary of state at a certain point intervened and decided to get rid of them.
And he addressed people from the prison environment.

FROM THE ANSA ARCHIVES, the first news on the disappearance of Emanuela Orlandi on 24 June 1983 - Chronicle
(HANDLE)
Orlandi thus reiterated what he had already said in the previous episode of Giovanni Floris' broadcast, last April 4: "I think one of the possibilities is that Emanuela may have even suffered abuse, but that abuse was organized. She was brought by someone to create the object of blackmail and since the Vatican has been doing everything for forty years to prevent the truth from getting out...
