WARSAW, Poland – Pedophile acts by a Catholic priest in the 1980s were like"torture", a Polish court has said, as it lifted the statute of limitation and ordered compensation to the victim – an unprecedented decision in Poland.

Mielewczyk told journalists the court's decision"marks a turning point showing that the Church is responsible for having concealed the pedophile".
