"Alleged Victims of Father Rupnik Demand Vatican Transparency and Justice"

Two alleged abuse victims of mosaic artist Father Marko Rupnik spoke publicly for the first time, detailing the tactics he allegedly used to manipulate them, including spiritual, psychological, and physical abuse. The Dicastery of the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF) has reopened the case after Pope Francis lifted the statute of limitations, and the investigation is underway. The victims' lawyer encouraged other victims to speak out to civil as well as Church authorities, emphasizing the need to report to state authorities and seek legal action.
