Opus Dei wins web battle

• Opus Dei is a Catholic organisation

A SPANISH judge has ordered a website to remove ‘private’ documents revealing the inner workings of Catholic organisation Opus Dei.

The new injunction prohibits the website opuslibros.org – set up by former members – from publishing rules of conduct.

The measure follows a complaint that the site was ‘violating intellectual property rights’ by using unseen writings of its founder. But the website argues it is a ‘fight against censorship and secrecy.’
