Pope Francis has demoted two cardinals facing allegations of s-e-x-u-a-l abuse, they were identified as Australia’s George Pell and Chile’s Francisco Javier Errazuriz.
According to the Vatican, the Cardinals were removed from the Pope’s inner circle and will no longer sit on the Council of Cardinals, set up by the pope as an international advice body.
