Austrian Catholics to Examine 3 Abuse Allegations The Oklahoman March 11, 2010 http://www.newsok.com/austrian-catholics-to-examine-3-abuse-allegations/article/feed/140728 AUSTRIA, VIENNA — An Austrian diocese says it will examine abuse allegations against three retired priests at a Catholic boarding school affiliated with a monastery. A former student at the school run by the Kremsmuenster Monastery in Upper Austria province has told the local newspaper that three priests inappropriately touched and hit misbehaving students in the 1980s. The Linz Diocese said Thursday it may take legal steps after listening to what the student has to say and confronting the suspects. The priests accused of sexual abuse have denied the allegations. The former student, who was not identified, attended the school for four years in the 1980s. |
