One third of the sexual
abuse cases involving the Dutch Catholic church have been dealt with
behind closed doors, the NRC said on Saturday.
In total, 342 of the 1,045 proven cases were dealt with outside the
official complaints procedure and the amount of financial compensation
paid to the victims was kept secret, the paper said. The paper bases
its claim on church documents.
