Media channels are spitting venom against Hindu Saints like H. H. Asaramji Bapu, even though nothing has been proved against him in any court of the law. Will these media chennels conduct debates and broadcast shows about this Indian Christian priest ! – Editor, HJS website
The Roman Catholic church has lifted the suspension of a priest convicted of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl in the United States, a church spokesperson in India said.
The spokesperson on Saturday said that the suspension of the Rev Joseph Palanivel Jeyapaul was lifted last month after the bishop of the Ootacamund Diocese in Tamil Nadu state consulted with church authorities at the Vatican.
Jeyapaul was suspended in 2010 after he was charged with sexually assaulting a teenage parishioner while serving in a church in Minnesota in 2004. He fled the United States, but was arrested in India by Interpol in 2012 and extradited to the US, where he was convicted last year.
Church spokesperson the Rev Sebastian Selvanathan said Jeyapaul had not yet been assigned any responsibilities.
