A Spanish priest has been removed from his job after apparently being busted on camera performing oral s*x on another man.
Father Francisco Javier Ruiz was dismissed from his position in the Churra section of the city of Murcia by Bishop of Cartagena Jose Manuel Lorca Planes on Wednesday.
It came after footage emerged purportedly showing him in an erotic embrace with a pal.
The 29-second video clip was captured by cyclist Alejandro Mejias' helmet-cam.
Mejias was biking on trails through the wooded area of Los Cuadros de Murcia - an area reportedly popular with dog owners - when he stumbled across the pair, reports La Verdad.
He can be clearly heard uttering a profanity on seeing the two men.
The footage, uploaded to YouTube, has been seen more than 7,000 times and spread across Facebook and Twitter, reports La Verdad.
Ruiz claims it is not him in the images and has contacted police to have the clip destroyed, reports El Mundo.
"I have never been in the area and I do not recognize those images that you are describing. It is a montage," he added.
But Spanish media has widely reported that it is him in the video. A statement from the Diocesis of Cartagena said the priest had been replaced by Antonio Ballester Serrano.
