Instead, the elderly nun guided Father Pulcini through the carnage, past the pools of blood, first to Sister Lucia Pulici, 82, who was lying on the floor with her throat cut, and then to Sister Olga Raschietti, 75, whose head had been smashed with a rock.The Italian missionary spokesman in Parma has denied reports that the elderly women were victims of sexual violence, but Burundi police spokesman Colonel Helmegilde Harimenshi and Father Pulcini both said they had been raped before they were beaten and killed with a knife.
