The Vatican
is under scrutiny. It happens with the Roman Catholic Church and its
hierarchy each time a paedophile scandal is brought into the open. It
has happened over the past fourteen years and of such magnitude that the
United Nations has questioned the Church.
In 2014 the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child released a damning report on the Holy See. “The Holy See has adopted policies and practices which have led to the continuation of the abuse by and the impunity of the perpetrators. Another matter was the code of silence that was imposed by the Church on children and the fact that reporting to national law enforcement authorities has never been made compulsory,” said Kirsten Sandberg, Chairwoman of the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child.
