Santiago, Chile, Oct 3, 2012 \/ 12:05 pm (CNA<\/a>).- In a statement Oct. 2, the Apostolic Nunciature in Chile revealed that local Bishop Marco Antonio Ordenes of Iquique is under investigation for sexual abuse.<\/p>\n

\tAccording to the Chilean daily La Tercera, Bishop Ordenes, 47, has said he is innocent. Since the accusations were made, his poor health caused by genetic kidney condition has worsened.<\/p>\n

\tThe Diocese of Iquique confirmed that his health is deteriorating and that he is currently in Peru resting on doctor's orders. He is expected to return to Chile soon to continue his recovery. Because the accused is a bishop, the investigation is being carried out by the Vatican.<\/p>\n

\tThe nunciature added that is has \u201coffered psychological support and assistance to those involved and has been in contact with Bishop Ordenes.\u201d<\/p>\n

\t\u201cIn response to this painful situation, the nunciature invites all to pray to the Lord that he help everyone proceed with justice and charity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\tThe communications department of the Diocese of Iquique also called on the community to \u201cintensify its prayer, to strengthen the bonds of unity and to pray to the Lord for a speedy clarification of these facts.\u201d<\/p>\n
