In a bizarre incident, five priests from Kerala are facing charges for sexually abusing and then blackmailing married women over years. All the priests belong to Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church. It all began with the woman having an affair with one of them during her teenage. However, it was used as a pretext for the priest and his colleagues to blackmail her and abuse her over years. The women shared the harassment when she could no more bear the assault. Acting on the complaint of her husband, the church has ordered an inquiry into the affair. Though the priests were not suspended, they were ordered to stay away from priestly rituals. However, one of the church officials said that the complaint did not deserve a police probe. “In the complaint, the husband said one priest had abused his wife 380 times. Then, what they were doing until the figure reached 380. That is why the husband was not keen to move a police complaint,” he said. Well! Well! that seems to be protective tone.
