From Kenya-
A defamation case on homosexuality, involving
Anglican Church Bishop Joseph Kagunda and three clerics, will now be
resolved outside court by a mediator.
Justice
Abigail Mshilla, of the High Court in Nyeri, on Wednesday summoned two
lead lawyers in the dispute to her chambers and advised them to try the
alternative dispute resolution mechanism.
HEARING SUSPENDED
Reverend Paul Warui, Archdeacon John Gachau and Reverend James Maigua filed a defamation suit in 2015 against the bishop of the Mt Kenya West Diocese..
They had been suspended over allegations of engaging in homosexuality three years ago but were exonerated by the court.
They
filed the suit arguing they suffered psychological trauma following
their ex-communication from church and the claims about their sexuality.
