Pope’s election only by College of Cardinals

The National Catholic Social Communications Centre yesterday said the election of a Pope is always the responsibility of the College of Cardinals and there is no prior nomination of candidates.

Issuing a clarification yesterday, National Director and spokesperson of the Archdiocese of Colombo Rev Fr Benedict Joseph said: “News items have been broadcast or have appeared in Sri Lanka mentioning names of possible Cardinal candidates for the Papacy in the announced coming Conclave and these seem to have been drawn from some international media sources.

“It is to be clarified that the election of a Pope is always the responsibility of the College of Cardinals only and it takes place within the four walls of the conclave. “There is no possibility for any prior nomination of candidates. As such, what has happened is pure speculation and has no basis of truth what so ever.”
