Kalpetta: Sister Lucy Kalappura said that rumours on getting a letter from Vatican approving her expulsion from the church was baseless. She added that her lawyer has not informed of any development on the trial on the plea filed by her or any endorsement on it. If the trial is proceeding without her knowledge, it cannot be justified at any cost, she reacted.

The petition was filed in Vatican in March 2020. The court was closed in the backdrop of Covid and it reopened only in August. The letter which stated that the expulsion was accepted was dated May 27, 2020. It was received after one year. So, it is clear that the letter was prepared before the lawyer could file an appeal for trial, she added.

The congregation continues fake campaign using the letter which was sent before the trial started. FCC superior Anne and others are conspiring against me for the last one year. I was directed to vacate the room within one week or to face action. They have taken action against me in the most demeaning way, she stated.

It is clear that the stamps on the letter sent from Vatican was removed and new ones pasted. The letter sent one year ago is being circulated now, Sister Lucy said.
