Case 1: I have seen this news bit in "Surya news" (Malayalam TV Channel) and now actually in a Catholic site.. but in no Indian-English media as of now

Police in Kerala have arrested a Catholic layman and charged him with sexually abusing boys in the orphanage that he runs. Antony Thareparambil was arrested on June 15....Thareparambil has managed an English-medium school and the orphanage for boys for the past seven years. The orphanage presently serves about 40 children, said Sandhya.It receives funds from overseas and is recognized by the state government and, she added...

Case 2:  Murder case in which first accused is a Christian priest, though some section of English media did cover this to some extent, it was much muted and I do not see much of latest updates on this http://www.eurasiareview.com/201006203585/murder-suspect-priest-surrenders-to-court.html

Case 3: The latest incident where 5 girls (including an 8th std girl) were sexually abused in a christian counselling center

Though Malayalam media ( eg: http://news.keralakaumudi.com/news.php?nid=4d82760bb00a54316a6f939fd620744a ) has clearly reported the names of the accused as Patrick, Johny and that its an "assissi" run institution , the only english news that I have seen so far http://www.hindustantimes.com/News-Feed/kerala/Five-girls-missing-from-orphanage-traced/Article1-563622.aspx does not give any hint that its a christian organization, nor does it say that the abuse was sexual in nature

Five girls who had fled on Friday night from an orphanage-cum-counselling centre run by a private trust at Agali in Palakkad district, were found at the Olavakkode railway station near Palakkad on Saturday morning, police sources said.The sources said the girls told them that they ran away due to 'harrassment' by the orphanage authorities.

The girls, belonging to Ernakulam, were in the centre for the last three to four months for counselling to cure 'mental depression'. Their parents had been informed about the incident, the sources said.They were taken back to Agali by police, who would be seeking clarification from the orphanage management, the sources said.
