ROME, January 21, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) – At the request of Health Minister Girolamo Sirchia, Italian police began investigating Dr. Severino Antinori who claims to be involved in human cloning experiments. Antinori has commenced a hunger strike to protest the investigation which he called an invasion of his “scientific freedom.” Antinori, who gained notoriety as a in vitro fertilization specialist impregnating a 65-year-old, announced last year that three women had been impregnated with cloned embryos. The first of which was to be born this month. However, Antinori refused to say he conducted the procedure, saying only that he had provided a “cultural and scientific contribution” to the scientists involved.
