The Kerala Catholic priest, who allegedly raped a minor, had tried to foist the paternity of the child born to the victim on her own father, police said Tuesday.
An investigating officer of Kannur police said that in return Father Robin Vadakkancheril had promised to look after the family’s financial requirements in future.
Father Robin, 48, who belonged to the Catholic Diocese of Mananthavady, was caught from Kochi on Monday.
The girl, who earlier this month gave birth to a boy, had initially said her own father was the parent of the newborn.
