He did not show up for mass on Thursday, causing concern among parishioners. Parish priest of Ploërmel (Morbihan), Christophe Guégan has not given any sign of life since he visited the community of the Dominicans of the Holy Spirit, based in Pontcallec. According to The Telegramthe disappearance of the 56-year-old man of the Church led to the launch of intense search operations.
Since Thursday and the announcement of the priest’s disappearance, the gendarmes have notably combed the area around Guilligomarc’h, in Finistère. It was there that the priest’s vehicle was found abandoned. Nicknamed “Devil’s Rocks”, this wild rocky chaos encircles the Ellé, a particularly turbulent watercourse at the moment.
The tracks lead to the river
The searches carried out by tracking dogs took the gendarmes to the banks of the river, reports The Telegram. On Saturday, new operations were carried out, in vain. “It’s a shock for everyone. We saw him during a meeting on Wednesday and nothing in his behavior suggested a disappearance,” the diocese of Vannes told our colleagues.
The priest Christophe Guégan arrived in the parish in 2016. An investigation into a disturbing disappearance has been opened.
