Pope Francis has stated that he will not take a position in the case
against cardinal George Pell and will allow justice to take its course
regarding allegations that the Australian priest sexually abused
children.
Speaking to reporters aboard the papal airplane, the Pope said that while waiting for the court to pass its judgement, it was important that there was no trial by media regarding Pell, who is the Vatican finance chief.
