WARSAW, Oct 24 (Reuters) - A Polish bishop, whose diocese was reportedly the scene of a sex party organised by priests at which Polish media say a male prostitute collapsed after taking erectile dysfunction pills, has resigned, the Vatican said on Tuesday.
The statement did not give a reason for the resignation of Bishop Grzegorz Kaszak, saying only that the pope had accepted it.
According to Polish media reports, a male prostitute collapsed at the party after taking too many erectile dysfunction pills.
The priest who hosted the party in his apartment, named as Tomasz Z, was eventually dismissed, according to the state-run news agency PAP.
The diocese said his behaviour was "a cause of great scandal for the faithful and justified indignation of public opinion", PAP reported.
