“I found the body of Father Peter lying in a pool of blood this morning,” Archbishop Machado of Vasai told Vatican news service Fides, explaining how he had been alerted by some lay people who worked with the priest.
“He had a rope around his neck and scissors stuck in his throat. It was a gruesome scene. The police appeared immediately on the scene and took the body for postmortem investigations. They are investigating the matter,” Archbishop Machado said.
He said the Catholic community is in “a state of shock.” The priest was operating a de-addiction center for alcoholics, which he founded.
