A watchdog group, Bishop Accountability, said it had found scores of clerics with ties to the country who have been publicly accused of sexual abuse. But very few have been disciplined.

A United States-based watchdog has launched an online database on more than 80 Roman Catholic priests who have been accused of sexually abusing minors in the Philippines and said the silence of Filipino bishops on the such assaults amounted to a cover-up.

BishopAccountability.org features the faces, names and details of Roman Catholic clergy accused of sexually assaulting minors.
