Pope Francis has expressed doubts over the sexual abuse allegation case made against Vatican finance chief, George Pell.
The pontiff added that he will wait until Australian justice takes its course before taking a position on Cardinal George Pell, Australia's most senior Roman Catholic. "There are doubts. 'In dubio pro reo'," he told the journalists aboard the papal plane. "We must avoid a media verdict, a verdict based on gossip."
