“If the Vatican wants, the investigation can last very little,” said Pietro Orlandi, the brother of Emanuela, a Vatican citizen who disappeared in 1983 at the age of 16, according to La Stampa, as quoted by Rador.

The brother of Emanuela Orlandi does not give up and on Sunday in the show “Verissimo” he again demanded an investigation to shed light after 40 years on what could have happened to his sister. “I can feel it alive,” the man said.

“This word about Wojtyła, who slipped away in the evening,” says Pietro Orlandi, “was a phrase that everyone said. I did not offend anyone and I have never apologized for it. I quoted the words of not my audio document, in which there are harsh statements about Pope Wojtyla and the case of Emanuele Orlandi.

I thought it appropriate for him to be heard by the champion of justice, so that he could hear this person,” said Pietro Orlandi, Emanuela’s brother, in an interview with Channel 5’s “Verissimo”.

“When I go to my mother, she always asks me: “So, did you find Emmanuela?”. She’s still waiting for good news, which will come sooner or later, I’m always optimistic.”

Orlandi refers to a file, the authenticity of which is highly contested, which would detail what happened to his sister Emanuela from the first moments of her disappearance: “The Pope’s man, Paolo Gabriele, who was my friend, saw him, and the father himself Georg told my lawyer that “the dossier is there, but it is in the State Secretariat”, so when he says that he does not have it, it is true.

And then: “When those documents appeared, everyone called them fake, ridiculous, even the Vatican, but they never answered my question why they were in the safe of the Prefecture of Economic Affairs.

I didn’t leave this track, I think Emanuela was taken there, and more than Banda di Magliana, Renatino De Pedis has something to do with it. Emmanuela was taken to blackmail someone, De Pedis was used as a pawn,” Pietro Orlandi also said on Verissimo.

A series launched on Netflix, The Vatican Girl, refers to the file and its contents, a documentary that tells a possible version of what happened.

“The Vatican,” Emanuele’s brother finally accused, “for 40 years did everything to prevent the truth from coming out, otherwise I cannot explain the behavior of these 40 years.”

However, the investigation launched by the prosecutor’s office in Rome, “I took it as a positive moment, we will have to lead somewhere, in my opinion, this investigation can last very little, because I have always said that if there is a little goodwill, it can last very little “, Pietro Orlandi concluded.
