Blantyre - A Malawian court convicted a Catholic priest and a nun of disorderly conduct on Thursday after they were caught engaged in a sexual act in a parked car with tinted windows.
The Malawian priest, 43, and the 26-year-old nun from neighbouring Zambia spent the night in police cells after being caught in the act on Wednesday, police said.
A court in the capital Lilongwe handed down suspended jail sentences of six months with hard labour after the pair pleaded guilty to charges of disorderly conduct.
"These people were caught in a sex act," Assistant Superintendent Kelvin Maigwa told Reuters.
Officials in the Church, whose priests are barred from sex or marriage, declined to comment.
