Varios ex miembros de los Testigos de Jehová de Finlandia están recurriendo a la justicia tras ser impedidos de denunciar crímenes sexuales dentro de la organización. La Liga Finlandesa de Derechos Humanos está acompañando el proceso y recuerda que la libertad de culto no exime a los grupos religiosos de respetar los derechos humanos. La petición de investigación en profundidad de las actividades de grupos religiosos vino del secretario general de Derechos Humanos, Kaari Mattila, tras un programa de televisión del canal Yle, donde ex miembros de los Testigos de Jehová hicieron graves denuncias. Algunos de los entrevistados dijeron que fueron prohibidos de denunciar crímenes sexuales a las autoridades. En vez de eso, fueron instruidos a esperar la resolución de los problemas a través de los “tribunales” internos de la organización religiosa, sin resultado práctico. El portavoz de los Testigos de Jehová de Finlandia negó las acusaciones, diciendo que todas las acciones criminales se notifican a las autoridades. “Las evidencias están siendo mostradas. Lo que falta es que las autoridades realicen la supervisión necesaria. Nuestras leyes sobre libertad de religión no son un pase libre para violaciones de los derechos humanos”, afirmó el Secretario General de la Liga. Después de haber sido prohibido en Rusia , los testigos de Jehová también se enfrentan a dificultades en Portugal , donde son acusados de violaciónes de derechos humanos por parte de sus prácticas consideradas desleales. Además, la secta responde a un proceso en la Corte de Justicia de la Unión Europea, por “reunir informaciones” de manera ilegal, en las visitas que hacen a las casas con el fin de recoger nuevos adeptos. https://www.bibliatodo.com/NoticiasCristianas/los-testigos-jehova-investigados-violacion-derechos-humanos/

PORTUGAL Based on legal arguments that revolve around violations of several articles of the Portuguese Constitution and the Religious Freedom Act, a petition has been launched to the Portuguese parliament to extinguish the legal entity that represents the Jehovah's Witnesses in Portugal and eliminate this community from the national registry of religions recognized and protected by law. The petition does NOT seek to prohibit Jehovah's Witnesses as a whole in the country. The petition denounces the institutional policy of shunning former members as a violation of basic human rights and psychological torture, and asks lawmakers and Portuguese judicial authorities to take measures to stop this abuse and suspend legal recognition of the entity. the branch until the shunning policies are changed. The petition is now gathering votes. 1000 votes assure that the author (s) of the petition will receive a hearing in parliament to present their case; 4000 votes ensure that the parliament will debate the petition during its session. You can see the petition here: http://peticaopublica.com/mobile/pview.aspx?pi=ExtRegistoATJ

Parliament denies petition will ban Jehovah's Witnesses ~ Things are moving towards an end. The decision was taken unanimously by the members of the Parliamentary Committee on Constitutional Affairs, and without debate, in view of the opinion to that effect from the services of the Assembly of the Republic. The law requires that parliament prevent the admissibility of petitions when its object is illegal. Religious freedom is a constitutional right in Portugal since the approval of the Constitution of the Republic in 1976. Petitions are addressed by citizens to the Assembly of the Republic for the "defense of personal interests, the Constitution, the law or the general interest" or to request "a legislative initiative". When they are signed by more than a thousand people, the petitioners are heard in the parliamentary committee, the petition is published in the Diário da Assembleia da República and when they reach 4,000 they are debated in the plenary. The online petition on Jehovah's Witnesses, which has as its first subscriber José João Felgueiras Grego, claims that this religious organization is "against citizenship", "against blood", has an "extremist mentality", a " hate speech ", is" a dictatorship "and" destroys the dreams of the people ". Petitions are directed by citizen groups are directed to the Assembly of the Republic for the "defense of personal interests, the Constitution, the law or the general interest" or to request "a legislative initiative." http://24.sapo.pt/atualidade/artigos/parlamento-recusa-peticao-para-banir-testemunhas-de-jeova#_swa_cname=sapo24_share&_swa_cmedium=web&_swa_csource=facebook&utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=sapo24_share

Portugal 1-0 France (aet) Portugal shrugged off an early injury to Cristiano Ronaldo to claim a first-ever major tournament trophy thanks to Éder's 109th-minute strike. Portugal beat France 1-0 after extra time to lift their first major trophy Sub Éder scores 109th-minute winner, his first competitive goal for country Portugal captain and all-time record scorer Cristiano Ronaldo off injured after 25 minutes Both teams – through André-Pierre Gignac and Raphael Guerreiro – denied by woodwork France's first tournament defeat on home soil in 19 games, since 1960 third-place play-off Portugal are UEFA EURO 2016 champions. The team that drew all three of their group games, that won only once inside 90 minutes all tournament, beat hosts France after extra time at Saint-Denis to get their hands on their first major trophy. They did it without the talismanic Cristiano Ronaldo too, their captain forced off early in the first half through injury. Fernando Santos's side clung on at times but, with Ronaldo orchestrating things from the technical area as much as their coach by the end, they eventually provided the one moment of magic required. Éder's fizzing 20-metre strike in the second half of extra time was just too good. Such a scenario looked impossible after eight minutes, Ronaldo initially continuing after a heavy collision with Dimitri Payet before eventually being replaced. There were tears and a standing ovation from all corners as he was taken off. All the talk, all the analysis, all the predictions – out the window. Off went 61 international goals. Cristiano Ronaldo leads the celebrations One man chasing only his second was Moussa Sissoko. The France midfielder was rampant and threatened to break the deadlock soon after Ronaldo's departure yet his shot was saved. Rui Patrício had earlier thwarted Antoine Griezmann, athletically tipping away the in-form forward's looping header. Portugal offered little in those opening exchanges, three passes straight out of play encouraging the hosts. Kingsley Coman came on for Payet inside the hour and soon teed up Griezmann for surely the chance of the game – Les Bleus' No7 was unmarked but headed over. Though Olivier Giroud briefly got in on the act with a low effort, Rui Patrício was again up to the task. He had to be sharper still to keep out Sissoko's thumping strike later in the half. Only once, well into added time, was the Portugal keeper beaten. Substitute André-Pierre Gignac turned in the box and scuffed a shot into the ground which bobbled towards the net only to bounce agonisingly back off a post. Hugo Lloris had been far less employed in regulation time, only really called into action to claw away Nani's miscued cross and then hold Ricardo Quaresma's acrobatic attempt from the rebound. Though he subsequently dealt with Éder's header, the French captain was rescued by the crossbar when Raphael Guerreiro fired in a free-kick and, with 109 minutes on the clock, could do nothing to keep out the sensational winner. Match analysis from Stade de France Man of the Match: Pepe (Portugal) Pepe missed the semi-final with a thigh injury but returned in style, keeping adidas Golden Boot winner Griezmann as quiet as could have been hoped. "We've written a brilliant page in the story of Portuguese football," said the centre-back. All without Ronaldo The man Portugal's hopes apparently rested on was out of action after less than ten minutes. To watch him battle on for a quarter of an hour was both desperately sad and hugely admirable. It was indicative of his relentless drive to have an impact – a desire that is heightened on the big occasion. For him then to cajole his players before extra time and gesticulate desperately throughout the additional 30 minutes was testimony to his team spirit. He was, if only briefly, a coach as well as a star player. Who needs goals for drama? This was not exactly thrill-a-minute stuff. Clear-cut opportunities were at a premium and some of the biggest names on the field were either not at their best or not on the pitch at all. However, it quickly became evident that one moment would decide this. That knowledge that someone was only a split-second from becoming a hero made for a gloriously nervy night. The tension was palpable throughout the stadium. http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuro/season=2016/matches/round=2000451/match=2017907/postmatch/report/index.html?xtor=EPR-11-[1107_Daily_EURO_EN_R2]-20160711-[Hero Image]-1148729093197@1
