Rome, June 6 (IANS/AKI) A court in southern Italy on Monday sentenced a Calabrian priest to four years in jail for paying for sex with minors.
The court in Reggio Calabria found Father Antonello Tropea, 44, guilty of paying 20 euros for sex in his car and of possessing child pornography.
Tropea was arrested in December after highway police spotted him parked in his car with an under-age boy.
The boy said he had met Tropea on a gay online chat room and the priest had paid him 20 euros for sex.
