VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – The prosecution at a Vatican trial of 10 people accused of financial crimes, including a cardinal, acknowledged on Tuesday deficiencies in its case and said it was willing to return to the investigative phase to fill in gaps contested by the defence.
Deputy prosecutor Alessandro Diddi made the surprise announcement at the first hearing since the trial started in July, saying: “I feel the duty to meet (the defence requests) half-way.” The judge is due to decide on Wednesday.
