Mons. Róbert Bezák, C.SS.R. (born March 1, 1960 in Handlová, Czechoslovakia) is a Slovak bishop. He was consecrated as Archbishop of Trnava on June 6, 2009 by Cardinal Jozef Tomko.
His removal from the see of Trnava was announced on July 2, 2012. Hundreds of Catholics protested at Trnava Cathedral following the announcement. Bezák told his congregation that the Vatican had made "serious allegations" against him and barred him from speaking to the media.
In December 2013 Bezák moved to the Redemptorist monastery in the Italian town of Bussolengo near Verona.
