The alleged crime must have happened eighteen years ago. The girl and her mother were members of Jehovah's Witnesses, while the defendant who is in his 30s was in the so-called "elders." The Council is the executive organ of the current church.
The man acted as overseer. The position is to teach members of the biblical issues. Police said the cult leader have touched the young girl. He is accused of sexual offenses under Penal Code section 200, 2 paragraph. Police believe he abused his position when the alleged relationship took place in defendant's home.
No comments
Sect leader's lawyer, Harald Hetland, declined to comment. Aid attorney for the girl, Roe Lauvås will not say anything about the victim will require redress or compensation before the case starts in Karmsund District 18 February.
If the man is acquitted, this is no problem for the church. But the sect leader is convicted of a sexual act, he can still get to continue an active member.
There is not automatically a member who has been convicted of assault are excluded, says Tom Frisvold, Head of Jehovah's Witnesses Norway. He emphasizes that his statements in general.
If a member is convicted of assault ends with such and show remorse, he may be allowed to continue as a member.
Must be secure
How can you know that the person does not commit new offenses?
We must be sure. If there is any doubt, he or she is thrown out.
How can you be sure?
There are no guarantees. The most important thing for us is that the children protected from predators. We must do everything we can to ensure that they are not allowed to be alone with children. He lost the leading position forever. To the extent that it is legal and possible, we make other members aware of the relationship, says Frisvold.
Healthy minds
A so-called overseer shall be qualified for the position. The requirements according to the CIO that the man has healthy mind is a reasonable and proper man and a loving, reliable husband. Only men can have such a responsible position in the Jehovah's Witnesses.
Frisvold emphasizes that Jehovah's Witnesses reject the abuse of children and that the sect see this as a crime. He encourages members to cooperate with the police.
