Kenyan Lawyer Looks To Overturn Jesus’ Death Sentence, Looks To Prosecute Jews/Italians

A Kenyan lawyer has filed a lawsuit with the International Court of Justice to overturn the conviction of Jesus Christ.

According to the Huffington Post, Dola Indidis’s roster of defendants consists of Pontius Pilate, former Roman Emperor King Herod, and the states of Israel and Italy.

“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 told Kenyan News Site Standard Media. 

“His selective and malicious prosecution violated his human rights through judicial misconduct, abuse of office bias and prejudice.”

Israel and Italy are included in the suit, Indidis explained to another news source, because those countries have ties to the Holy Roman Empire.

“The government for whom they acted still is answerable for their act,” Indidis told Kenya’s Citizen TV. “Pontius Pilate was acting under the government of Rome, which was headed by Caesar.”

He told the news station that he will of course look to the Bible as his primary source of evidence, which is why he thinks he has a good case.

The Religious News Service noted that Indidis will look to the trial of Joan of Arc as evidence for the precedent of his request. Joan of Arc was burned at the stake, but according to the Bible, the verdict in her case was reversed by a papal commission many years after her death.

But regardless of Indidis’ documented evidence, the ICJ denied that they would hear the case when website Legal Cheek inquired about the court’s response to the suit.

“It is not even theoretically possible for us to consider this case,” the ICJ reportedly said.
