Pope Benedict XVI has admitted to providing false information during an investigation into sexual abuse in the Archdiocese of Munich.
A report by law firm Westpfahl Spilker Wastl (WSW) last week accused Benedict of failing to act in four child abuse cases during his tenure as archbishop of Munich and Freising from 1977 to 1982. The report said the former pope was aware of the transfer to his then-diocese of a priest after it was alleged that he had abused children.
