Rebel nun pens sexual abuse by Catholic clergy

By K P Pushparaj
Wayanad, Dec 5 (UNI) An autobiography by a rebel nun that exposes, among others, atrocities including sexual abuse and exploitation by Catholic clergy, has opened a Pandora's box in the state of Kerala, if not the whole of the Catholic world.
Sr Lucy, a former nun of the Franciscan Clarist Congregation (FCC) in Mananthavady near here, has been in news ever since she deposed against Bishop Franco Mulakkal, accused in raping repeatedly a nun in Kottayam. The book by Sister Lucy Kalappurakkal, titled 'Karthavinte Naamathil' (meaning, 'In the Name of Lord') which recently hit the stands alleges human rights violations and sexual perversion by priests of the Church.
