Danish police are urging the Vatican to take action over a Dutch nun suspected to be involved in the death of one of her fellow sisters.
The nun in question, one Mother Theresa Brenninkmeijer, is suspected to have covered up the death of an elderly sister who succumbed to the elements after she was locked out in the cold because she had disturbed a mass. Danish law has a statute of limitations on murder and the 1993 death falls outside it, but police are hoping that the church will take action over the matter.
According to De Telegraaf, Mother Brenninkmeijer’s various abuses of her fellow convent members had been reported to the Vatican but no action was taken. At present, her precise whereabouts are unknown, but she is believed to be at a convent in Peru.
