And now replying to my own post:
The Roman Inquisition was never disbanded, simply renamed.
"This body was renamed the Supreme Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office
in 1908 by Pope Saint Pius X. It was
changed to Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith
on December 7, 1965, at the end of the Second Vatican
Council. In 1983, with the new code of Canon law, "Sacred"
was dropped from the names of Vatican Congregations."
