Cardinal George Pell will return to Rome this week for the first time since he was acquitted of child sexual abuse and released from prison in Australia.
The ex-Vatican treasurer, 79, was due to fly out of Sydney on Tuesday, Australian media reported.
He was freed in April after Australia’s top court overturned his conviction. He had served more than a year in jail.
The cleric left the Vatican in 2017 to fight the charges in his home state of Victoria.
