An alleged child sex offender named Neville George Pell has denied he
is related to Cardinal George Pell after a Melbourne court heard he
told investigating police they were linked. In a sworn statement
tendered to Melbourne Magistrates Court, a detective said when a
colleague asked Mr Pell in February last year if he was related to
"George Pell" he replied: "Yes, f---ing hypocrite."
But after being committed on Wednesday to stand trial on eight charges, Mr Pell, 69, told Fairfax Media outside court he was not related to Cardinal Pell, but had "always referred to George as cousin George because he's a Pell".
