Catholic community leaders told an alleged ACT child abuse victim
to "forgive" her father and removed the religious mentor the girl had
worked up the courage to confide in, police say.
The alleged abuser, now 73, was a leading member of a Canberra religious community closely linked to the Catholic Church, and stands accused of abusing a number of girls, including two of his own daughters.
