Indeed, even Chaouqui's legal counselor Laura Sgro, in shutting contentions on Tuesday, utilized words including noisy mouthed, terrible, haughty and arrogant to depict her customer however said this didn't mean she was liable.

Chaouqui, Vallejo and his partner Nicola Maio are blamed for shaping a criminal affiliation and trick to uncover private records. Vallejo is the main non-Italian.

The Vatican made it a wrongdoing to uncover official reports in 2013 after a different breaks outrage, which the media named Vatileaks and which went before the surprising acquiescence of Pope Benedict XVI.
