Pope Francis has authorised a "thorough study" of Vatican archives into how a prominent American cardinal advanced through church ranks despite allegations that he slept with seminarians and young priests.

The Vatican issued a statement Saturday saying it was aware that such an investigation may produce evidence "that choices were taken that would not be consonant with a contemporary approach to such issues."
However, it said the Vatican would "follow the path of truth wherever it may lead."
