Various media reported that Father Marko Rupnik, accused of having sexually abused numerous nuns, could leave Rome and be assigned to a residence for priests in Milan, Italy.<\/p>\n

The source of the rumors was Father Miran \u017dvanut, superior of the Society of Jesus in Slovenia, who told the Slovenian weekly Reporter that the accused priest will be forced to leave the Italian capital and live confined to the Aloisianum in Gallarate, the home for elderly priests of the Society of Jesus in the Diocese in Milan in northern Italy.<\/p>\n

Asked about these alleged statements, Rupnik\u2019s superior, Father Johan Verschueren, who is also the delegate of the Society of Jesus for Houses, Works, and Interprovincial Jesuits in Rome, told ACI Prensa, CNA\u2019s Spanish-language news partner, that those statements will remain \u201con the the Reporter\u2019s record.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also stressed that Rupnik \u201conly has one major superior \u2014 that\u2019s me. Therefore, I am dealing with the case, and I will not comment on the proceedings still going on now.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
