Victoria’s top cop has hinted that police could be split over a decision whether to charge Cardinal George Pell with historic child abuse offences.

Mr Ashton also revealed that the Taskforce Sano would liaise with lawyers for Cardinal Pell and the victims if a decision was made not to charge the senior Vatican figure.
