Bishop suspended for adopting woman
In what is perhaps the first instance of its kind, Bishop John Thattunkal was suspended in Kochi for adopting a 26-year-old woman as per the civil law. The adoption was opposed by priests and leaders of the Latin Catholic Church. The suspension comes after an inquiry conducted by a three member commission. The Bishop will be out of office till the completion of the inquiry.
