                     Vatican Cleric Arrested in Bank Probe

   Italian officials say a Vatican cleric has been arrested in connection
   with an investigation into the scandal-plagued Vatican bank, known as
   the Institute for Works of Religion.
   Monsignor Nunzio Scarano, who was arrested Friday, had worked in the
   Vatican`s financial administration.
   Authorities say a member of Italy`s secret service and a financier were
   also arrested Friday as part of the probe into the men`s involvement in
   the plot to illegally bring $26 million into Italy from Switzerland.
   Scarano, who was recently suspended from his Vatican post, is under
   investigation in another case by the southern city of Salerno for
   alleged money laundering.
