ALBANY — A Greene County priest has been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of investigations into allegations of sexual abuse of a minor, the Albany Roman Catholic Diocese announced Sunday.

Rev. Jeremiah Nunan, 74, pastor of Sacred Heart Church in Cairo and Our Lady of Knock Shrine in East Durham, is temporarily barred from presenting himself as a priest, wearing clerical garb or officiating at masses or sacraments, the Diocese said.

Diocese spokesman Kenneth Goldfarb said the Diocese has referred the allegations to the Greene County District Attorney's Office. The Diocese's action was announced at weekend masses at the two churches.
