The Archdiocese of Tarragona has removed a priest, FX Morell, for having sexually abused a minor in the early 1990s in Reus. The case reached Archbishop Joan Planellas in September 2022, and following an internal investigation, the file was sent to the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, the Vatican body that handles sexual abuse complaints. The file sent to Rome concluded that the case was statute-barred. However, the head of the Tarragona Church asked the Holy See to lift the statute of limitations in order to take action against the priest.

In the face of Vox's attacks on the Muslim community, the bishops have taken a stand and have already warned those of Santiago Abascal (and, incidentally, also those in the PP) that attempting to prohibit the celebration of religious events violates the rights and freedoms recognized in the Constitution. The Spanish Episcopal Conference was clear in its position on the controversy in the Murcian town of Jumella, where the PP and Vox joined forces to veto the issue. that the Muslim community used a municipal sports facility to celebrate a holiday. This Tuesday, the Archbishop of Tarragona, Joan Planellas, also spoke clearly from Catalonia, defending the community's right to worship and reprimanding Vox for its anti-immigration rhetoric.
