Grateful for acquittal Christian MP Päivi Räsänen

14 November 2023
Räsänen: "The Helsinki Court of Appeal has just ruled that all the charges against me have been dismissed. I am relieved, happy and grateful to God and to all those who have supported me through this stage of my life. The decision was in line with my expectations – I never doubted for a moment that I committed any offence in my writings and statements."

We are grateful for the acquittal of Mrs. Rasanen. She has not been found guilty of discriminating against homosexuals. Räsänen: "The decision is important for the religious freedom 'of Bible-believing Christians'. And also for others. I hope the decision will encourage everyone to courageously exercise their freedom of expression."

CNE.news kept a live blog of the ruling, see:

We hope and pray that there will be no appeal, although that is not ruled out. Please pray for her and that freedom of speech and religion will be preserved.
