Kenyan lawyer, Dola Indidis is suing Israel, the Republic of Italy for the trial and crucifixion of Jesus Christ which the lawyer claims was unlawful. Indidis, a Roman Catholic filed his suit in the International Court of Justice in the Netherlands, petitioning the court to nullify Jesus’ conviction and death sentence by Pontius Pilate. He is also accusing the Roman governor of Judea, of “judicial misconduct, abuse of office, bias and prejudice.”
For
Indidis, it’s all about human rights. In particular, the lawyer is
challenging the modes of questioning used in Jesus’ trial more than
2,000 years ago.
“I
filed the case because it’s my duty to uphold the dignity of Jesus and I
have gone to the ICJ to seek justice for the man from Nazareth. His
selective and malicious prosecution violated his human rights through
judicial misconduct, abuse of office bias and prejudice…Jesus came here
on Earth as a human. Now when he died, he was not given an opportunity
to be heard. No one speaks for him.”
Although
most of the defendants are long deceased, Indidis still sees merit in
the case as it could set a precedent for the future.
This
case is not about fanaticism, it’s a case of law and it’s the duty of
counsel to help in the development of law…Evidence today is on record in
the Bible, and you cannot discredit the Bible.
