I dare say they'll have a pretty good idea by now but they probably won't publicly announce a positive result immediately cause that'd compromise the investigation.
Mind you, I don't think that we can jump to the conclusion that it's anything to do with the church just because the remains were concealed there ,( if they were). It's not uncommon for people to dispose of remains in graveyards and such for obvious reasons.
The bones were collected from the depths of the Vatican, so some kind internal burial area without public access. It's random or stuff that is alternative.
