Four new clerical sex abuse claims have come to light since
Archbishop Charles Scicluna took over as head of the Maltese Church
three months ago.
Speaking during a question and answer session with Times of Malta’s newsroom, Mgr Scicluna said the new claims were all being looked into by the Church’s newly set up Safeguarding Commission. Some have already been handed over to the police for investigation. While all of the cases were “serious”, he said, only one involved minors.
