his unlawful crucifixion.

A
Kenyan lawyer has filed a petition with the International
Court of Justice in The Hague, suggesting that the trial and
crucifixion of Jesus Christ was unlawful, and the State of
Israel among others should be held responsible, Kenyan news
outlet the Nairobian reported on
Friday.
Dola Indidis, a lawyer and former spokesman of the Kenyan
Judiciary is reportedly attempting to sue Tiberius (emperor
of Rome, 42 BCE-37 CE), Pontius Pilate, a selection of
Jewish elders, King Herod, the Republic of Italy and the
State of Israel.
“Evidence today is on record in the Bible, and you cannot
discredit the Bible,” Indidis told the Kenyan Citizen News.
Although those he suggests should have been convicted during
the original trial have not been alive for more than 2,000
years, Indidis insists that the government for whom they
acted can and should still be held responsible.
“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 the Nairobian. “His
selective and malicious prosecution violated his human
rights through judicial misconduct, abuse of office bias and
prejudice.”
Indidis apparently named the states of Italy and Israel in
the lawsuit because upon the attainment of independence, the
two states incorporated the laws of the Roman Empire, those
in force at the time of the crucifixion.
He is challenging the mode of questioning used during
Jesus’s trial, prosecution, hearing and sentencing; the
form of punishment meted out to him while undergoing
judicial proceedings and the substance of the information
used to convict him.
The case was first filed in the High Court in Nairobi but
was rejected. Indidis then applied to have it heard at the
ICJ.
Indidis says he wants to establish what crime Jesus was
charged with and prays that the court decides “that the
proceedings before the Roman courts were a nullity in law,
for they did not conform to the rule of law at the material
time and any time thereafter.”
“Some of those present spat in his face, struck him with
their fists, slapped him, taunted him, and pronounced him
worthy of death,” Indidis told the Kenyan news
website Standard
Media(SDE).
When Jesus died, Indidis insists, he was not given an
opportunity to be heard.
“I am suing as a friend,” he said.
Indidis insisted on the validity of his case, saying “I
know with a matter of fact and truth we have a good case
with a high probability of success and I hope it is done in
my lifetime.”
When asked about the case, an official from the ICJ told
legal news website Legal
Cheek, “The ICJ has no jurisdiction for such a
case. The ICJ settles disputes between states. It is not
even theoretically possible for us to consider this
case.”
