A Croatian priest -- bedevilled with "insatiable egotism" -- has gone on the run with more than one million pounds pocketed from an illegal land sale in the company of a married woman, the Telegraph (British) website reports today (October 16, 2012).
Franciscan priest Father Sime Nimac, 34, disappeared after withdrawing the money he had made from selling a piece of church land near Split without authorization from the local diocese.
"The property was sold without the explicit written consent of the competent ecclesiastical authority," the local Catholic Church said in a statement, adding that it had filed a lawsuit to nullify the sale.
Fr. Nimac was known for living the good life, with a love of fast cars, good clothes, and was often seen with a woman.
