Four charged over Calvi killing
April 19, 2005 - 9:11AM

Four people were indicted today for the murder of
Italian financier Roberto Calvi, a banker with close
ties to the Vatican whose body was found hanging under
a London bridge in 1982, reports said.

Businessman Flavio Carboni; his ex-girlfriend Manuela
Kleinzig, and two men with alleged ties to the Mafia,
Pippo Calo and Ernesto Diotallevi, will stand trial in
October for Calvi's murder, the Italian news agencies
ANSA and Apcom said.

Calvi was dubbed "God's banker" because of his ties
with the Vatican's bank and its former top official,
the American Archbishop Paul C Marcinkus.

Calvi's body was found within days of the collapse of
Banco Ambrosiano, where he was president and in which
the Vatican's bank held a significant stake. The
collapse was Italy's biggest postwar banking scandal.

Banco Ambrosiano fell apart following the
disappearance of $US1.3 billion ($A1.69 billion). The
Vatican's bank agreed to pay $US250 million ($A325.56
million) to the Italian bank's creditors but denied
any wrongdoing. Marcinkus also denied wrongdoing.

Italian prosecutors issued a report in July 2003
concluding that Calvi did not commit suicide but was
killed.

British police announced in 2003 that they had begun a
murder inquiry into Calvi's death after a detailed
review of the case.

In December 2003, a 42-year-old woman was arrested on
suspicion of conspiring to pervert the course of
justice, and of perjury.
