Indonesian Bishop Paskalis Bruno Syukur has resigned as head of the Diocese of Bogor amid allegations of mismanagement, abruptly ending a tenure that had attracted international attention after he declined a cardinalate in 2024.
The 63-year-old Franciscan announced his resignation before the diocesan curial council on 19 January, with the Holy See accepting it the same day, according to sources in the diocese. The Vatican appointed Bishop Christophorus Tri Harsono of Purwokerto as apostolic administrator until a new bishop is named.
