Vatileaks 2 defendant Chaouqui says reporters to 'pay dearly'

(ANSA) - Rome, November 27 - Vatileaks 2 defendant Francesca Chaouqui Friday cautioned journalists covering her trial in the Vatican for allegedly leaking information that she plans to sue them in Italy for claiming she is a whistleblower.
    Addressing "Vaticanists, journalists, lowly receivers of court documents that I, as a defendant, can't see for more than 20 minutes," she said in a Facebook post that subsequently was removed "I challenge you - prove before the judges that I am the source of the leaks.
    "Publish the tapped conversations between me and Emiliano Fittipaldio where I send him a document. "Or between me and Gianluigi Nuzzi where I give him a page, a password. Just one. Or an exchange between me and any Italian or foreign journalist," she said refering to the authors of the books at the centre of the case.
    "Come on, show the world that I betrayed the pope," she continued, "You have 52 hours before the trial to come up with the proof. Run to whoever gave you the material yesterday (for which you will compensate me dearly if it is true material, and for which you will reconstruct my career if false or manipulated).
    Run like thieves to fence the private documents and publish one proof I am the source of the leaks.
    "If you don't succeed, as will surely happen, look in the mirror and start to count the moments that separate you from when a real court, with a real magistrate, in Italy will sentence you to compensate me for the damage of the martyrdom without proof that I am suffering from those who forget they are journalists rather than executors of orders from the dregs of a shamefully corrupt para-Vatican that denigrates and delegitimises me. I am here waiting".
