Dead archbishop was nuncio in a number of countries

The ongoing story of the former papal nuncio, Polish archbishop Josef Wesolowski has come to a sad and sudden end. Or has it?

The man seems to have a link with Ireland. He was titular archbishop of Slebte, which is in Armagh.

Wesolowski was found dead in his lodgings yesterday. It means there will be no trial.

He was appointed nuncio in Bolivia in  November 1999 and then in 2002 he was appointed nuncio to the Central Asian countries of Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. He moved to the Dominican Republic in 2008.

Are they a lot of moves in a short number of years?

Has there been an investigation into his activities in all these countries? Will the Holy See make it its business to carry out thorough investigations in all the countries where this man lived?

Wesolowski was ordained a priest in Krakow by Karol Woytelia. And the same man appointed him to his first nuncio job.

The archbishop had been charged with all the 'usual offences'.

Wesolowski was recalled to Rome nearly two years ago after allegations of abusing young boys and possessing child pornography. While originally free to roam the city upon his arrival, he had been living at the Vatican under a form of house arrest since Vatican officials arrested him in September 2014.

After a year of living in Rome, the Vatican moved to defrock him. During that time, Wesolowski used his computer to access child pornography. He was facing charges for that, as well.

Although the former diplomat had been laicised last year, the Vatican communication regarding his death referred to him as "His Excellency Msgr. Jozef Wesolowski."

The church and its titles.
