The opposition Democratic Coalition (DK) has submitted a draft resolution calling for setting up an independent committee to investigate sexual crime committed against children within the church, the party’s deputy group leader said on Sunday.
“Several cases have proved in recent years that children in Hungary are not safe. Paedophile monsters are there in the schools, foster homes, sports clubs and in Catholic institutions as well,” Ágnes Vadai told an online press conference.
She said there were no committee or institution in place working with independent civil experts. “And in the past years it depended solely on the decision of the Catholic Church’s leaders whether a child abuse case was investigated or hushed up,” Vadai said, criticising the incumbent government over its failure to investigate those cases.
She said that the committee her party proposed would have ten members delegated by the Catholic Church and the other ten civil members assigned by parties with deputies in the Hungarian parliament and in the European Parliament.
“A committee with such a structure can achieve that a balanced, thorough and comprehensive investigation is conducted and that crimes within the Catholic Church come to light,” Vadai said.
