Mystery of Barbara Ubryk Case Sparks Cracow Convent Guard
In Cracow the Barbara Ubryk affair prompts legal action after a nun’s supposed confinement since 1848. The physician who treated Ubryk in the convent has not met her, and the Attorney General now leads the case. A Carmelite confessor’s death and a priest’s intoxicated confession triggered disclosures. Authorities deploy military guards to protect convents as arrests are made.
