Don Mario Montis: “I wasn't taking a picture”. In the meantime, the decision to replace him was made by the Archbishopric
It is Sunday evening when on the social profile of Don Mario Montis, parish priest of the church of Santa Barbara Vergine Martire in Furtei since 2016, a photo appears showing him naked in the shower, glasses on his nose, the crucifix on his chest .
A selfie that somehow ends up in the stories of Facebook and that in a few hours goes around the small town of Marmilla, with 1,600 inhabitants.
"I am mortified, I have tormented thoughts", swears Don Mario, 70, from Sanlurese born in Sardara, who explains to L'Unione Sarda that he has no idea what happened: "I was not taking a picture. I went into the shower and closed a call, since I can't see well, maybe I activated the camera . I repeat: I don't know ".
But in the meantime , the offending photo has arrived at the Archbishopric . And on the website of the Diocese of Cagliari the announcement was published: "His Most Reverend Excellency Monsignor Baturi has appointed Don Alberto Peddis administrator of the parish of Furtei". Replaced.
