VATICAN CITY (RNS) The Catholic Church is under fire for revoking the
suspension of a priest in India, despite his previous extradition to
the United States and conviction for sexual abuse.
Joseph Palanivel Jeyapaul, 61, was suspended by the southern Indian diocese of Ooty in 2010 and later turned over to the U.S. justice system. He was found guilty of abusing a girl between 2004 and 2005 while working as a priest in the Diocese of Crookston in Minnesota.
