The Vatican archer and Australia's highest Catholic figure, Cardinal George Pwell, was charged with sexual crimes in Australia.
“Pell Cardinal faces multiple charges, and complainers are numerous”, police in Victoria state said.
Police said they have filed charges after receiving advice from prosecutors.
Pwell, who has headquarters at the Vatican, denied the accusations.
The Church said through a statement that Pwell will return to Australia as soon as possible, “to clear his name”.
Cardinal Pell is not only Australia's highest clergyman but also one of the highest officials in the Catholic world.
For two decades he has been the main figure in the church's debate on issues like homosexuality and AIDS. /Rel/
