Warsaw, Poland /
The Vatican announced on Tuesday the resignation of a Polish bishop responsible for a diocese in southern Poland where a priest had organized an orgy.
“The Holy Father has accepted the resignation from the pastoral government of the diocese of Sosnowiec (Poland) presented by His Excellency Bishop Grzegorz Kaszak,” indicated a Vatican statement without giving a reason for the decision.
In September, in the town of Dabrowa Gornicza, in the diocese of Sosnowiec, a priest He organized an orgy in his parish inviting a prostitute.
The case came to light because the guest lost consciousness and it was necessary to call medical assistance.
“Father Tomasz Z and two other laymen have committed a very serious violation of moral norms, which the Church does not tolerate and strongly condemns. The incident has become a cause of great scandal for the faithful and justified public indignation,” the official website of the diocese later indicated.
The media in Poland, a country with a Catholic tradition, cited two other previous scandals in the same diocese.
In the first case, the director of a local seminary was allegedly caught having sexual relations in a gay club. In the other incident, a 46-year-old priest allegedly killed a deacon 20 years his junior before throwing himself under a train.
