The guilt of the late Cardinal Henryk Gulbinowicz is not in doubt, Archbishop Gintaras Grušas of Vilnius said, after local politicians questioned Church sanctions against the Polish prelate for sexual abuse.

“In ecclesiastical processes, the Holy See is the highest instance and the last appellate institution, and its announced decision is final and unappealable,” Archbishop Grušas said on 10 October.
