Cocaine Haul Found in 91-Year-Old Vatican Librarian's Car
An official Vatican car with diplomatic licence plates has been found riddled with several kilos of cocaine and cannabis in the French Alps, according to local reports.
The car belongs to an Argentine cardinal, 91-year-old Jorge Maria Mejia, who is also emeritus librarian at the Holy See. Mejia retired in 2003 and is confined to bed following an heart attack. Pope Francis visited Mejia just two days after being elected.
According to French newspaper Le Monde, the cardinal's personal secretary entrusted two Italian men, aged 31 and 41, with taking the car for its annual checkup.
They drove the vehicle to Spain to buy four kilos of cocaine and 200 grams of cannabis and returned to France, according to reports, in the belief that the diplomatic plates would protect them.
