More charges are expected to be laid against a Catholic priest who is a prime suspect in a series of alleged rapes.

The priest appeared in Tavua court on Friday charged with one count of alleged rape and one count of alleged indecent assault.

Police confirm the priest is expected to be charged for three more offences.

Police had earlier confirmed that a complaint was lodged last week by a cleaner and since then other victims have come forward.
