Disappearance Of Emanuela Orlandi
Emanuela Orlandi (born 14 January 1968) was a Vatican teenager who mysteriously disappeared while returning home from a flute lesson in Rome on 22 June 1983. Sightings of Orlandi in various places have been reported over the years, including inside Vatican City, but all have been unreliable. The girl's disappearance led to much speculation on the involvement of international terrorism, Italian organized crime, the Banco Ambrosiano, and a plot inside the Holy See to cover up a sex scandal. The Orlandi family, in particular Pietro Orlandi (Emanuela's brother), consistently pressed the Vatican for release of information about the case, believing that the Holy See knew the truth. The Vatican always maintained strict silence about the matter, denying any accusation of involvement, but over the years, many voices from inside the Holy See suggested that someone actually knew what happened to the girl. In 2023, forty years after the disappearance of Orlandi, the Vatican City opened an of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
