The police detained an 83-year-old priest on Sunday after he was accused at a congressional hearing of having molested boys as young as 12 and a television station broadcast a tape of him having sex with a 19-year-old man. The accusations against the priest, Msgr. Luiz Marques Barbosa, are the most lurid of several sexual scandals to hit the Roman Catholic Church in Brazil recently. Senator Magno Malta, who is leading the legislatures inquiry into sexual abuse, said that the detention represented a milestone in the fight against child abuse in Brazil. Prosecutors will now decide whether to file child abuse charges.
