English Cardinal and a priest guilty in radio case
May 15, 2005
A Rome court convicted a Vatican cardinal and a top Vatican Radio official Monday of polluting the environment with electromagnetic waves from a transmission tower, an official from Vatican Radio said.

(AP, MAY 10, 2005) ROME - Cardinal Roberto Tucci, former head of Vatican Radio's management committee, and the Reverend Pasquale Borgomeo, the station's director general, were sentenced to 10 days in jail, said the Reverend Federico Lombardi, the station's program director.

The sentences for the two men, both Jesuits, were automatically suspended.

Lombardi said the defense would appeal.
