CATHOLIC CHURCH ANTWERP PRESS CONFERENCE SEXUAL ABUSE IN THE CHU

Bishop Johan Bonny of Antwerp talks to the press during a press conference concerning the request of the Belgian bishops to suspend Roger Vangheluwe, in Antwerp, Friday 29 September 2023. In the recent VRT Canvas documentary Godvergeten, several victims of sexual child abuse within the institution of the church testify, including a relative of Vangheluwe. 13 years ago, the testimony of the nephew caused justice to start the 'Operatie Kelk' investigation, into child abuse in the church, but that investigation has had no consequences up till now.
