Four Christian preachers in the United Kingdom, known as the Bristol Four, will challenge the Avon and Somerset Police Departments over their arrests following an incident caught on video in 2016.
Christian Concern reports Mike Overd, Don Karns, Mike Stockwell, and AJ Clarke are bringing their lawsuit against the police for assault, false imprisonment, malicious prosecution, misfeasance in a Public Office, and infringement of their Human Rights, in particular articles 9, 10 and 11 of the European Convention of Human Rights.
The case raises significant questions on the right to freedom of speech and the freedom of Christian preachers in the UK to exercise their religious beliefs and to have the right to freedom of assembly in public.
