Bishop Jesús Delgado, third in line from the Archbishop of El
Salvador and the leader of the effort to canonize the martyr Archbishop
Oscar Arnulfo Romero, has been suspended from all his functions in the
Catholic Church after confessing to having sexually abused a
nine-year-old girl.
While the Catholic Church confirmed the news, it has not given details of the case. According to Salvadoran law, sexual abuse of minors including inappropriate touching and acts of sexual violation of a non-carnal nature are punishable by incarceration for eight to ten years.
