A teenage girl whose disappearance in Rome has remained a mystery for 30 years was kidnapped for sex parties by a gang involving Vatican police and foreign diplomats, the Roman Catholic Church's leading exorcist has claimed.

Father Gabriele Amorth, who was appointed by the late John Paul II as
the Vatican's chief exorcist and claims to have performed thousands of
exorcisms, said Emanuela Orlandi was later murdered and her body
disposed of.
In the latest twist in one of the Holy See's most enduring mysteries,
he said the 15-year-old schoolgirl was snatched from the streets of
central Rome in the summer of 1983 and forced to take part in sex
parties.
"This was a crime with a sexual motive. Parties were organised, with a
Vatican gendarme acting as the 'recruiter' of the girls.
"The network involved diplomatic personnel from a foreign embassy to
the Holy See. I believe Emanuela ended up a victim of this circle,"
Father Amorth, the honorary president of the International Association
of Exorcists, told La Stampa newspaper.
The debate over who kidnapped Emanuela and what became of her has
raged in Italy for three decades.

It has been suggested that she was taken by the leader of a notorious
gang of criminals, who wanted to put pressure on Vatican officials to
recover money that he had allegedly lent them.
Another theory is that she was abducted to be used as a bargaining
chip for the release from prison of Mehmet Ali Agca, the Turkish
gunman who tried to kill John Paul II in St Peter's Square in 1981,
reportedly on the orders of the KGB.
But Father Amorth, 85, dismissed the "international dimension", saying
that a Vatican archivist had also come to the conclusion that Emanuela
was abducted for sexual exploitation.
A controversial and outspoken priest, Father Amorth has claimed that
yoga is Satanic because it leads to a worship of Hinduism and that the
Harry Potter books are dangerous because they encourage children to
believe in black magic and wizardry.
Earlier this month investigators opened the tomb of Enrico "Renatino"
De Pedis, the gang leader, in order to check long-standing claims that
the remains of the teenager were buried alongside him.
They found his remains inside the tomb in the Sant' Apollinare
basilica in Rome and also, intriguingly, other bones in a crypt
nearby.
Investigators said the unidentified bones probably dated from the
early 19th century, but they are being analysed by forensic experts to
see if any of them might belong to Emanuela.
In 2005, an anonymous caller to a crime programme on Italian TV
claimed that the key to the schoolgirl's kidnap lay in the tomb of the
mobster, who was gunned down by rival gangsters in 1990.
