Father Richard Rodgers suspended amid historic sex abuse probe

A Roman Catholic priest has been suspended from his North Lanarkshire parish amid a police investigation into allegations of historical sexual abuse.
The Diocese of Motherwell said Father Richard Rodgers, 79, would be absent from St Mary's Parish Church in Cleland for "an unspecified period of time". It said the action had been taken after a complaint was received and passed to Police Scotland.
