The Pope's child sex protection expert Father Hans Zollner on battling 'evil' (photo)
By his own admission, Father Hans Zollner's job is "dark, bleak and heavy". Often described as the Pope's expert in the fight against child abuse, he has heard countless tales from those who have suffered at the hands of priests. Zollner has travelled all over the world in his role, arriving in New Zealand for the first time last week.
