Inquest into death of Father Vimalraj Antonyadimai to examine parish conflict before Murray Bridge priest’s suicide

A Catholic priest found dead inside his own living quarters has sparked a court probe that will include a focus on a conflict with parishioners within his church.

The death of a “gentle” Murray Bridge Catholic priest will be probed after claims he took his own life due to a conflict with a parishioner who allegedly made racial remarks and undermined his authority in the church.
