A former priest at the Tømmerup Church in Kalundborg has been charged with sexually assaulting seven children and committing indecent exposure against a further five.
The 47-year-old priest, who has been remanded in custody for the last year, has been charged for 30 separate breaches of the law, reports broadcaster TV2.
He is charged with sexually abusing seven children, who were all under the legal age of consent at the time of the crimes; and indecent exposure against five boys, whom he contacted on Skype, pretending to be a girl, according to TV2’s report, which is based on a charge sheet obtained by the television station.
The assaults are reported to have taken place at the 47-year-old’s place of residence over a 10-year period between 2006 and May 2016.
