GERMAN DIOCESE SUSPENDS CONVICTED PRIESTS SEX ABUSER

BERLIN – A German archdiocese that Pope Benedict XVI oversaw from 1977 to 1982 said Monday that a priest convicted in 1986 of sexually abusing children has been suspended for violating a condition that he have no contact with minors.
The disclosure came as the church is grappling with claims by about 300 Germans who have alleged this year that priests sexually or physically abused them in church-run boarding schools and other institutions.
  • The Archdiocese of Munich and Freising said in a statement Monday that it had removed the German priest, identified only as Rev. H., from his duties after "it was proved he did not comply with the conditions set following allegations of sexually abusing minors and a conviction in the justice system."
  • Prelate Josef Obermaier, who was responsible for assigning the pastor to his current position, also resigned, the archdiocese said.
  • Pope Benedict XVI has not yet officially commented the flood of allegations that priests sexually and physically abused minors in their care, and according to Archbishop Rino Fisichella he is expected to soon release a letter addressing similar claims in Ireland.
  • In Ireland on Monday, Cardinal Sean Brady said he would not resign unless the pope asked him to, despite admitting that he helped the church collect evidence against a priest who molested scores of children in Ireland, Britain and the United States before his arrest in 1994.
