As long as she had a GOOD reason...

Kiwi nun broke Irish lockdown rules to attend exorcism

A New Zealand nun based in Ireland breached local lockdown rules when she attended a bizarre exorcism outside the nation's parliament, it has emerged.

Seventy people took place in the illegal protest outside the Dáil (Irish Parliament) on December 8 (local time) demanding places of worship reopen in the country.

Sister Anne Marie, along with Mother Irene Gibson, from the Carmelite Sisters of the Holy Face of Jesus, travelled from Cork to Dublin to attend the event, during a period when inter-county travel was banned and outdoor gatherings were limited to 15 people.

A member of the group held an 'exorcism' outside the Dáil, before a traditional Latin Mass was also staged.
