It is not uncommon for priests from developing countries who work in Western parishes to set up private “relief organisations” which too often benefit them more than “the poor” and are controlled by nobody. Girelli pointed out that this “violates Canon Law.”
An anonymous priest told UcaNews.com (October 19) that the nuncio was addressing a “serious issue” which was discussed many times in the past, “but no one dared to deal with it.”
