Prague, March 13 (CTK) – Three Czech activists have sent an open letter to Pope Benedict XVI, telling him they disapprove of the planned Czech law on the return of confiscated property to churches and on financial settlement, they told journalists Tuesday.
Writer Lenka Prochazkova, historian Mojmir Grygar and art director Vaclav Dvorak said in their opinion the planned law is unfounded from the ethical, historical and legal points of view and is at variance with the constitution.
The activists said they have lodged several dozens of criminal complaints over the government’s bill. Prochazkova alone has lodged a complaint against all members of the cabinet on suspicion of abuse of power and breach of trust.
