FWIU, the priest officiating at the funeral was also expelled from the sspx. I read something to that effect on this or another thread. Hopefully, someone will be able to clarify with more specifics.
Is this him?

After repeated ambiguous declarations in the last few weeks about the Holocaust and other issues, several Italian sources report that the Italian District of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX / SSPX) has announced the expulsion of Father Floriano Abrahamowicz, the priest responsible for Northeast Italy.

Far from confessing his sins, Priebke gave instructions to his lawyer to release, after his death, his ‘testimony’, which makes clear that he had NOT repented of his war crimes (or sins). In his ‘testimony’, Priebke also takes the opportunity to re-state his denial of the holocaust.
But a Fr Abrahamowicz seems to be claiming to have given absolution to Priebke. Of course, he may be inventing this detail; but, even if he is not, I wonder if he the necessary authority to hear confessions? Some years ago it was reported that the SSPX had expelled him, for his holocaust denial.
