	Vatican Bank Accused of Laundering RT January 23, 2010 http://rt.com/Top_News/2010-01-23/vatican-bank-money-laundering.html ROME -- The Vatican is facing some awkward questions after an investigation was launched into its alleged involvement in a money-laundering scheme. The financial scandal was triggered by a report in an Italian magazine that claimed the Vatican bank laundered some $200 million. The alleged secrets of the Vatican have often provided rich material for fictional works, such as blockbuster film Angels and Demons, but the Holy See now has to deal with a case equally shrouded in mystery. The Vatican Bank has been accused of laundering $200 million through the accounts of Italy's UniCredit Bank, one of the world's largest financial institutions.
