Cardinal George Alencherry, head of the Syro-Malabar Church, says the Church assets cannot be considered as public property. The cardinal made this assertion on February 19 in the Kerala High Court. The court has sought the prelate’s explanation on a petition filed by a layman seeking a police probe into the controversial land deal in Ernakulam-Angamaly arch- diocese. In his statement, Cardinal Alencherry pointed out that the Church is not a trust. A third person cannot intervene even if there is loss in the land deal, the cardinal clarified.
