Pope Francis has warmly welcomed Cardinal George Pell for a private audience at the Vatican after the cardinal’s sex abuse conviction and acquittal.

No decision has yet been made on whether Cardinal George Pell will appeal his child sexual abuse convictions to the High Court, a spokeswoman for the cleric says, despite reports to the contrary.
