Father Amer Saka and Joseph Chaldean Catholic Church in London

Emanuel Shaleta: Joseph Chaldean Catholic Church in London, has been suspended after telling Bishop Emanuel Shaleta that he lost all the money to gambling, according to CTV. It is unclear what form of gambling the priest may have engaged in. Father Amer Saka, a priest at St. London Police confirmed to CTV News that they launched a fraud investigation in late February, after receiving a complaint from the Diocese of Hamilton, which is managing the refugees' sponsorship. According to a report in the Toronto Star, Saka has since been sent for treatment for gambling addiction at the Southdown Institute. No charges have been laid and the allegations have not been proven in court. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
