WARSAW, Poland – Polish police said Wednesday they have located a catholic priest Wojciech Gil (Padre Alberto) sought by Interpol on suspicion he sexually abused children in the Dominican Republic, Associated Press reports.

The prelate native of Poland was found in a location near the southern city of Krakow, police spokeswoman Katrzyna Cislo told The Associated Press. He was not detained because Interpol only asked to locate him. Gil, 36, was instructed to notify police of any change of location.

Cislo said that to arrest him, the police would need a request from Dominican investigators. Poland does not have an extradition treaty with the Dominican Republic.

A spokesman for Polish prosecutors said they are also investigating whether Gil committed any wrongdoing in Poland.
