Head of French Church child abuse probe says, there are possibly 10,000 victims

  • Realise that the media, so-called progressives and secularists in India maintain studied silence over such incidents.
  • The lustful form of Christian clergy who claim to be the worshippers of love and peace. It is really enraging to hear them talk about peace and tolerance. 

Paris (France) – The head of an independent enquiry investigating church child abuse in France said  on Tuesday that there might have been up to 10,000 victims since 1950. Jean-Marc Sauve, head of a commission set up by the Catholic church, said that a previous estimate in June last year of 3,000 victims “is certainly an underestimate.”

A hotline set up in June 2019 for victims and witnesses to report abuse received 6,500 calls in the first 17 months of operation. “The big question for us is ‘how many victims came forward’? Is it 25% ? 10%, 5% or less ?,” Sauve told reporters.

The Bishops’ Conference of France agreed in November 2018 to set up the commission after huge and repeated child abuse scandals shook the Catholic Church at home and abroad. The move sparked mixed reactions from victims’ associations, who questioned French prosecutors’ willingness and ability to press charges.

The commission, comprised of more than 20 figures drawn from legal, academic and medical backgrounds, was originally scheduled to deliver a final report by the end of 2020 but has set a new deadline of September this year.
