A predator priest who is wanted in Canada walks free today in Malta. We hope Canadian authorities will move quickly to apprehend him before he disappears.

Fr. Godwin Scerri has been paroled. He had been found guilty of sexual abusing young boys. He is wanted by the Ontario provincial police having avoided prosecution there two decades ago when he fled to Malta.

Scerri belongs to a Catholic religious order called the Missionary Society of St Paul.

We beg anyone who saw, suspected or suffered Scerri’s crimes – in Canada, Malta or elsewhere – to find courage, speak up, call police, expose wrongdoers and protect kids. We urge Catholic officials in Canada to use pulpit announcements, church bulletins and parish websites to warn parents, police, parishioners and the public about Scerri.
