Bishop Richard Williamson, who has denied the Holocaust, was expelled from a radical Catholic sect for disobeying his superiors.

Williamson was expelled from the Society of Saint Pius X, which opposes church reforms decided by the second Vatican Council, the society said Wednesday.

The British bishop is opposed to recent society efforts to reintegrate into the Catholic Church.

Williamson gave an interview just before the rehabilitation to the Swedish SVT broadcaster in which he called the murder of Jews in gas chambers during the Holocaust “lies, lies, lies.”

He also allegedly denied that any Jews were murdered in gas chambers during the Holocaust and insisted that not more than 300,000 European Jews were killed in total.
