Convicted Italian cardinal Angelo Becciu at a Palm Sunday procession at the Vatican AFP Angelo Becciu, an Italian cardinal convicted of embezzlement and stripped of his privileges by Pope Francis, confirmed Tuesday he will not take part in the conclave to elect a new Catholic leader. In a statement from his lawyer, Becciu said he would abide by the late pontiff's will, ending days of speculation on whether he would join other cardinal electors in the Sistine Chapel on May 7. "I have decided to obey, as I have always done, the will of Pope Francis not to enter into conclave," Becciu said, while continuing to protest his innocence.
