THE Vatican sealed off part of St Peter's Basilica after chunks of plaster rained down on worshippers at the height of the Easter holiday season.
Plaster fell near Michelangelo's famed Pieta statue, near the main entrance - hours after the Pope is alleged to have denied the existence of hell.
...
Hours later, worshippers were pummelled with falling plaster at the Holy spot - but no injuries were reported.
Vatican spokesman Greg Burke said repairmen were brought into to secure the site and the basilica remained open for business.
