Title: A Religious Rumble in Bavaria: Sex in Church Scandal Unfolds
Following a steamy romp in an Upper Bavarian church, both parties involved, including the man's spouse, will face trial. The upcoming trial for the woman begins at Rosenheim district court, as announced by a court representative on Thursday. Initially, a penalty order was slapped on the woman, but she appealed, leading to the court hearing.
Already, the man has been in the dock at Traunstein District Court since this month, accused of various transgressions. Amongst the allegations is his raunchy rendezvous with his other half near the church altar in Schechen, near Rosenheim, along with capturing the incident on camera. Aloof to the numerous accusations levelled against him, the defendant remained silent during the trial's start.
His charges include disrupting religious practice, “insulting mischief” in a religious sanctuary, assault, deprivation of liberty, threats, and fraud. The courtroom drama has raised questions about the leniency of the initial penalty order levied against the woman.
The altar may require re-consecration post the act. A decision on performing the rite, which involves covering the altar and re-blessing it with incense and holy water, is yet to be made. According to the Munich and Freising archdiocese, such a spectacle necessitates a penitential rite in line with liturgical books, to appease the religious feelings of the devout.
