Italy's supreme Cassation
Court on Monday upheld two guilty verdicts against a former
catechist, sentencing him to three years four months in prison
for sex acts with minors.
Carilio Ghilardi, 56, a native of the town of Sorisole in
Bergamo province, was found guilty of sexually abusing three
15-year-old boys in October 2010-September 2011.
The victims said he molested them in cars while giving them
rides home, and on a day trip to Naples.
The court also awarded the family of one of the victims,
which was a civil plaintiff in the case, damages of 50,000
euros.
The sentence is binding.
