A Catholic bishop in southern India has dismissed allegations of being a womanizer and fathering two children; he says the claims are a retaliatory response from priests opposed to his administrative reforms.
Ucanews.org reported that Bishop Kinnikadass William of Mysore told a news conference Nov. 5: “There is no truth in the allegations. A group (of priests) are behind it because of administrative reforms I introduced.”
The 54-year-old bishop spoke to the media after 37 of the 100 odd priests in the diocese wrote to the Vatican and its papal representative in India, plus other heads of church bodies in India.
