Pope
Francis accepted the resignation of Italian-Brazilian archbishop Aldo
Di Cillo Pagotto on Wednesday, following a Vatican investigation into
his part in a sex abuse scandal.
Pagotto, 66, archbishop of Paraiba in Brazil, allegedly welcomed into his diocese priests and seminarians accused of paedophilia after they had been expelled by other bishops. He was also accused of refusing to discuss the thorny issue of sex abuse, which has plagued the Catholic Church for decades.
