The Supreme Court
of Italy has ordered Vatican Radio to compensate Cesano, a small town near
Rome, following allegations the broadcaster's high-powered transmitters put
children at a higher risk of cancer.

near the town was above the legal limit. A health authority released a study
claiming that children in the area were six times more likely to develop
leukemia.
