George Pell: Court to rule on cardinal’s final bid to quash sex abuse verdict

Australia’s top court is set to rule on Cardinal George Pell’s final appeal to overturn his conviction for child sexual abuse.

The ex-Vatican treasurer is serving a six-year jail sentence after a jury found he abused two boys in a Melbourne cathedral in the 1990s.

Pell is the most senior Catholic priest ever to be found guilty of such crimes.

He has challenged the verdict at the High Court, arguing that the jury did not properly consider all evidence.

On Tuesday, the court will hand down its judgement in the case and is likely to determine whether Pell serves the remainder of his sentence or walks free.
