Bishop Rogelio Ricardo Livieres Plano, who was removed from his post in Paraguay, has issued a bitter complaint, charging that other bishops conspired against him and saying that Pope Francis \u201cmust answer to God\u201d for his removal.<\/p>\n

The deposed bishop, in a letter to Cardinal Marc Ouellet, the prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, said that he was being \u201cpersecuted\u201d for his orthodoxy, and complained that he had not been given an opportunity to defend himself.<\/p>\n
