A SPECIAL fund has been set up for Australian Catholics to donate to Cardinal George Pell’s legal fees after the Sydney archdiocese declared it would not pay for his defence.

The Sunday Herald Sun can today reveal a litigation fund has been established for Catholics in Victoria to help pay for Cardinal Pell’s legal team as he fights historical sexual abuse charges.

Institute of Public Affairs executive director John Roskam today confirmed the fund’s existence.

Mr Roskam, a Catholic, said he had obtained an account number and BSB from “people assisting the cardinal”.

He said he had passed those details on to Catholics who were keen to donate to the 76-year-old’s legal defence.
