ROME—The Vatican’s head of security has resigned over leaks connected to a widening financial scandal over the Holy See’s investments in London real estate. The affair, sparked by costly property dealings in London’s upscale Chelsea district, has already led to the suspension of five Vatican employees, including a senior Vatican financial supervisor, according to Vatican officials and a person familiar with the matter. So far the Vatican has kept the nature of any suspected wrongdoing secret.
