UK government acts to prevent arrest of Pope 7/23/10 Andrew John The UK
government is said to have set in motion a law change that will prevent the
Pope from being arrested when he visits the country in September. Officials
in Whitehall – the UK government's administrative offices – are said to
be worried over plans by the atheist authors Richard Dawkins and Christopher
Hitchens to have Pope Benedict arrested for crimes against humanity,
because of his alleged cover-up of priestly assaults on children. "Mr Dawkins,
the atheist campaigner, and Mr Hitchens, an atheist author, asked human
rights lawyers in April to put together a case for charging the Pope over his
alleged cover-up of sexual abuse of children in the Catholic church,"
reports Pink News today. Its report adds: "Justice Secretary Ken Clarke
proposed
changes to the law today which would require the consent of the Director
of Public Prosecutions to any arrest warrant issued under universal
jurisdiction." _http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/295022_
