Kenyan Lawyer Sues Israel For Killing Jesus
The state of Israel is being sued by a Kenyan
lawyer in the International Criminal Court of
Justice (ICJ) for the “trial and crucifixion of
Jesus Christ,” which the lawyer claims was
“unlawful,” according to regional media
reports.
Kenyan lawyer Dola Indidis says that Israel
and the Jewish people should be held legally
liable for Jesus’s death, according to the
Jerusalem Post.
Indidis, who has taken his case the ICJ in The
Hague, is also suing Tiberius, the emperor of
Rome in 42 BCE, “Pontius Pilate, a selection of
Jewish elders, King Herod, the Republic of
Italy, and the State of Israel,” according to
the Post.
Indidis is using the Bible as his primary piece
of evidence against Israel.
“Evidence today is on record in the Bible, and
you cannot discredit the Bible,” Indidis was
quoted as saying by the Kenyan Citizen News.
Indidis further “insists that the government
for whom they acted can and should still be
held responsible,” the Post reported.
Indidis, who reportedly is a former
spokesman of the Kenyan Judiciary, insists
that he has a “duty to uphold the dignity of
Jesus.”
“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,” Indidis was quoted as saying. “His
selective and malicious prosecution violated
his human rights through judicial misconduct,
abuse of office bias and prejudice.”
Indidis further maintains that Jesus was not
given a proper say during his trial and that
his resulting punishment was unfairly carried
out.
“I am suing as a friend [of Jesus],” he was
quoted as saying.
When asked about the case, an ICJ official is
reported to have said, “It is not even
theoretically possible for us to consider this
case,” according to the Post.
