Student alleges sexual abuseby priest in Kerala schoolAnanthakrishnan G, TNN 13 November 2009, 03:36am IST |
abuse by priests in their hostel, two weeks after her sister died of suspected poisoning at their school run by the Orthodox church.
They took up the matter with a nun who instead of helping her, threatened them with dire consequences, Anju said, adding they were forced to keep quiet for fear of being dismissed from school.
On the morning of October 24, the family received information from the school that Anu was unwell. Her father rushed to the school and along with Anju, took Anu to the district hospital and then to a hospital in Kochi. But she died on the way. Doctors found traces of poison in the viscera.
The school has ruled out any foul play. Anju said her sister was beaten cruelly by a nun. The family said there were several injury marks all over Anu’s body. Police registered a case of sexual assault against the priests, but are yet to question them. Charges of the cops dragging their feet are already doing the rounds.

Another nun row rocks Kerala church

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: A church in Kerala is in the throes of yet another scandal even as controversy over the death of sister Abhaya is yet to
settle. Relatives of a Catholic nun have alleged that she is being forcibly kept in mental hospitals to prevent her from revealing the alleged ‘sexual misdemeanours’ in the convent. But the convent denies the charge and insists that she is a psychiatric case.
Sixty-year-old Treesa Thomas, who was attached to the Divine Mary Convent at Anchal in Kollam district, was admitted to a hospital run by the Church in Thodupuzha in October. “About two weeks back, she was shifted to the government mental asylum in Thiruvananthapuram,” the nun’s sister-in-law Tresyamma told TOI over phone from Kottayam.
The mater came to light after the nun’s nephew Benny filed a complaint with the Kerala Women’s Commission. Benny alleged Thomas, who has been a nun for the last 43 years, was forcibly admitted to the hospital to prevent her from spilling the beans on “illicit affairs between priests and sisters” and to make her statements look silly. It also claimed that a nun, who was unable to bear the torment, had ended her life in the convent sometime back.
Benny lives in Ireland and had come home in connection with the baptism of his kid which is when the family got the wind of the matter and decided to take it up with the authorities. Following the complaint, commission member P K Sainaba visited the nun and recorded her statement.
