Rome, Oct.26 - The Re-examination Court must reconsider the release of Father Fedele Bisceglia, the 69 year-old priest investigated for having allegedly raped a nun. The Court of Cassation decided so, thus annulling the release ordered by the Court of Catanzaro. THe Cassation also accepted the request of a Cosenza DA prosecutor, Claudio Currelli, regarding the release of the priest's secretary, Antonio Gaudio, also accused of rape. The priest was arrested on 23 January 2006, while Gaudio was granted house arrest. Father Fedele, who has worked to give shelter to immigrants in Cosenza for years, was accused of rape by a nun, but the COurt of Catanzaro didn't find her version credible. The Court of Cassation obviously thinks it differently.
