""A Jesuit priest whose kidnapping by the Argentine military in
1976 has raised the issue of what role newly named Pope Francis played in that
country's so-called "dirty war" said Friday that he was "reconciled to the
events" and wished the pope well, but he did not explicitly absolve the pope of
involvement in his detention. In a statement posted on a website in Germany,
where the Rev. Francisco Jalics now lives, Jalics recounted the details of his
detention, saying he was held for five months, blindfolded and shackled. At the
time, the pope, then the Rev. Jorge Mario Bergoglio, was Jalics' Jesuit
superior. "I'm unable to comment on the role of Father Bergoglio in this
matter," the statement said.""
