AL-ABSI’S PRESS OFFICE DENIES REPORTS BY SOME MEDIA QUOTING POPE FRANCIS, WARNS AGAINST FABRICATING CHURCH-RELATED NEWS UNDER PENALTY OF LEGAL ACCOUNTABILITY

In an issued statement on Sunday, the media office of Melkite Greek Catholic Patriarch of Antioch and All the East, Youssef Al-Absi, categorically denied what was published in some “yellow media” pages, about His Holiness the Pope’s “reprimanding of some of the bishops of the sect against what they claimed as corruption…”

The statement stressed that the entire word of His Holiness the Pope was published by the Vatican’s press office, which was also circulated by the media office of Patriarch Al-Absi. It emphasized that any other published content is a “total fabrication, misleading and slander news.”

Patriarch Al-Absi’s media office, thus, warned against “fabricating, promoting and publishing groundless news related to the Church, under legal and moral responsibility.”
