Multiple images have been released as police continue to investigate the riot that followed the stabbing of a bishop and a priest in a western Sydney church last week.

Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel was allegedly stabbed by a 16-year-old teenager as he gave a sermon last Monday.

Both the teen and a priest at the church were injured during the incident, police have said.
