The Vatican was today forced to deny that Pope Benedict will donate his organs after his death.
The 83-year-old revealed he carried a donor card back in 1999, six years before he was elected to the papacy.
At the time, he described donation as an 'act of love' and said he carried the card 'with all my personal details on it' at all times.
But the Vatican has now said the card effectively became invalid when he ceased to be a cardinal and became pontiff.
