 But Gesualdo, without permission from the Grand Master, fled from the hospital and disappeared from the island of Malta.After hearing the report of the Commissioners and mature deliberation, the Council, as was customary, resolved to convene the public assembly of the knights to proceed to expel Gesualdo from the Knights Hospitallers.On 10 March 1562 Gesualdo appeared before Inquisition Tribunal in Rome again to "be examined if he walks in the light or in darkness" and was sentenced to do penance.
