ITALY – PADUA – A RANDY Italian priest faces the sack after being accused of staging S&M orgies in his rectory, pimping out some of his 30 lovers on wife swapping websites and concealing home-made sex tapes in covers bearing the names of popes.

Father Andrea Contin, 48, is said to have carried a briefcase “full of vibrators, sex toys, masks and bondage equipment” to visit widows and divorcees and holidayed at a naturist swingers’ resort with some of his “harem” of female friends.

One woman accused the priest of encouraging her to have sex with a HORSE and beating her in the rectory on two occasions.

Police are investigating Fr Contin on suspicion of living off immoral earnings and psychological violence following complaints from three of his congregation.

Now Catholic church bosses say they have begun proceedings to have him defrocked and whatever the outcome of the criminal case he will lose his job as parish priest of San Lazzaro church in the northern city of Padua.

Claudio Cipolla, the Bishop of Padua, said Fr Contin’s alleged activities were “unacceptable for a priest, for a Christian and even for a man.”

Cops found a variety of sex toys in his house along with videos allegedly showing kinky orgies on church premises.

The clergyman is also said to have farmed out some of his lovers to male customers on wife swapping websites.

And he enjoyed lavish holidays with some of the women including one stay at a naturist village in the French town of Cap d’Agde.

One of the priest’s alleged lovers, a 49-year-old church volunteer, told how they had sex in his rectory.

“There were a lot of women hovering around him. I didn’t understand that at first, only later,” she told the newspaper Il Mattino di Padova.

Fr Contin is said to have carried a satchel full of sex toys and bondage gear on pastoral visits to widows and woman whose marriages had collapsed.

Instead of giving spiritual guidance, he allegedly seduced before pressuring them into participating in extreme sexual activities involving other men which he filmed.

One woman – said to have borne the churchman a child – told cops he “wanted sex night and day” and tried to force her to have sex with a horse.

She said in her police statement: “He always carried a briefcase full of vibrators, sex toys, masks and bondage equipment.”

More than 30 women have added their names to a complaint since the first three came forward to cops in December.

Pope Francis is said to have summoned Bishop Cipolla back from a church trip to South America to investigate the scandal surrounding Fr Contin, who fled on holiday to Croatia with his parents.

Complaints were reportedly first made to the local diocese last summer but church authorities failed to contact the police, saying they had not yet completed their own investigation.

Another priest, named as Father Roberto Cavazzana, is said to have admitted to taking part in and “occasionally” filming orgies.

Bishop Cipolla said Cavazzana’s case is “different” since “his involvement was only partial and occasional – though not acceptable for a priest” and he was probably keep his job.
