A nun has complained that she was sexually assaulted by the chief priest of a Tendai sect temple in Shikoku. She has filed a petition to have the priesthood of the chief Priest and two others revoked.

The chief priest, who is in his 60s, told an interview on the 1st of this month, ``I have nothing to say.'' The Tendai Religious Affairs Agency said it has confirmed that the woman who made the complaint is a nun of the Tendai Sect. It will proceed with the investigation and deliberate based on the results.
