The former longtime pastor of St. George Antiochian Orthodox Cathedral in Worcester, Massachusetts has been accused of raping and physically assaulting a 43-year-old woman, the Worcester Telegram and Gazette website reports today (February 1, 2011).
The Very Rev. Charles Michael Abdelahad will be arraigned on February 4, 2011 in Central District Court on a single charge of rape, four counts of assault and battery, and five counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.
A statement of facts on file in court states that Rev. Abdelahad beat the woman on different occasions dating back to 2007.
His attorney said that his client denies any criminal wrongdoing.

Never, this man would never do this, I would put my life in front of him. I pray for this woman to open her heart to truth and pray for forgivness.
