Archbishop Pimen of Suceava and Radauti was a collaborator of the Communist political police, Securitate

One of the
highest-ranking priests in Romania, Archbishop Pimen of Suceava and
Radauti (Northern Moldova) is making most of the headlines on
Wednesday, after the specialized institutions confirmed that he was a
collaborator of the Communist political police, Securitate.

The new is taken so seriously it takes a lot of the space reserved for
the Agriculture Minister, who was filmed while accepting a 15,000 euros
bribe.



His Holiness Pimen Zainea, Archbishop of Suceava and Radauti, was
involved in political police actions, CNSAS - the body studying the
former political police, Securitate, archives - decided. Pimen was a
Securitate collaborator ever since the '70's, then he worked for the
Foreign intelligence Service.

Another high-ranked clergy member with the same CNSAS verdict is the
Alba Bishop, Andrei Andreicut, who challenged the verdict, but failed
to change it, Evenimentul Zilei reads.
