From cards delivered a few weeks ago promoter of vatican justice, Alessandro Diddi, a potentially disruptive exchange of letters breaks out at the Rome prosecutor’s office in the 40-year investigation into the disappearance of Emanuela Orlandi. A clue that already has partial indications of having been partly followed and then inexplicably abandoned among the many of these years and that would lead to her mysterious disappearance within the girl’s family. The possible turning point was anticipated by Tg La7 in the 8 pm edition of July 10.
“MORBID ATTENTION»
The correspondence goes back to September 1983, when the 16-year-old daughter of a messenger of the prefecture of the papal household and the Vatican citizen, there has been no news for three months. In the strictest confidence the then Secretary of State Augustine Casaroli write a message by diplomatic mail to a South American priest sent to Colombia by John Paul II. He asks the recipient of the letter about a specific circumstance potentially linked to the case, of which he is aware since the prelate was a long-time spiritual adviser and confessor to the Orlandi family. Casaroli wants me to confirm that Emanuela’s older sister, Natalina, has never revealed that she was sexually harassed by her uncle, now deceased. mario meneguzzi. The man is husband of lucia orlandi, The sister of the father of Emanuela and Casaroli received confirmation of this episode by return of diplomatic mail, on which it had been requested by the Roman investigative circles: «Yes, it is true, it is the written response coming from bogota —Natalina was the object of morbid attention from her uncle, she confided to me terrified: she had been told to shut up or she would have lost her job in the Chamber of Deputies where Meneguzzi, who ran the bar, had hired her. some time before.”
THE SHADOW INVESTIGATIONS
The other figure that the Capitoline prosecutor’s office is now focusing on Francesco LoVoi, which is why this episode, known by researchers at the time to have been confirmed by Natalina Orlandi herself in a testimonial statement, was not assessed by the investigations at the time. Of mario meneguzzi -according to the La7 report-, in addition to working in the Chamber, the proximity to Sisde environments was known, so much so that on his advice brother-in-law Ercole Orlandi The lawyer Gennaro Egidio was entrusted with the guarantee that the Democratic Information and Security Service would take care of the lawyer’s fees. It was Menguzzi himself who answered some of the anonymous telephone calls that gave more or less credible and verifiable information about Emanuela (“Mario” was also the name of one of the telephone operators) and then “escaped” from being persecuted by the flying squad on the way to Santa Marinella where it came from, we don’t know how, viz.
THE IDENTIFIER
For now we are only talking about suspicions, but other elements have already been collected about Emanuela’s uncle. For example, he supports her face. the identikit drawn by the policeman and the policeman who reported having seen, on the night of the disappearance, a man talking to the 16-year-old girl who had just left the music school near the Senate, where she was practicing on the flute. This data can also be found in the original research file which is now being thoroughly reviewed: prosecutor Margherita Gerunda, then replaced, the hypothetical hoax of a known person, whose car the 16-year-old would have gotten into because she was confident. “Have sent to the Rome prosecutor’s office documents that may have escaped or that you had to know how to look for,” Diddi said a few weeks ago, “lines of investigation worthy of further study” on which the prosecutor said he had “compiled all the evidence available in the structures of the Vatican and the Holy See, also collecting “data that had never been processed”. Among these could be the true turning point in the mystery of Emanuela.
