Quit Call over Abuse Victims' Vow Press Association March 14, 2010 http://www.google.com/hostednews/ukpress/article/ALeqM5jQMsFfj2tyPTvbncZ9D622_c0oRA IRELAND -- The head of Catholic Church in Ireland has been urged to resign after he admitted being at meetings where victims of a notorious paedophile priest were forced to take a vow of silence. Catholic Primate Cardinal Sean Brady confirmed he was present when teenagers signed an oath not to reveal the church was investigating Fr Brendan Smyth in 1975. Smyth - who is believed to have abused hundreds of children over a 40 year period - was finally jailed in the mid-1990s and died in prison. |
