A 29-year-old priest from the Diocese of St.

Pölten in Austria has been arrested on drug-related charges, specifically for allegedly violating drug laws.

The priest, originally from the Archdiocese of Warsaw, has been serving in Austria since 2021. Following his arrest, he was immediately relieved of his duties, and all pastoral activities have been suspended.

Reports suggest that he may have been producing Crystal Meth in the parish house.

Additionally, a second individual, believed to be connected to the case, has also been taken into custody.

The investigation is ongoing, and the Diocese is cooperating fully with authorities to clarify the situation.
