Venezuela's highest court to mull animal sacrifice legalization
af.reuters.com
Venezuela's highest court will decide whether to annul a ban on animal sacrifice, after admitting a petition by a member of a small religious group saying his constitutional and civil rights were violated.
The case opens up questions of religious freedom but also comes amid an economic and social crisis in Venezuela in which staple foods and medicines are running short.
The petition was filed by a lawyer who said that local ordinances violate the country's constitution. It was accepted by Venezuela's highest court two weeks ago, according to documents on its website.(goo.gl/VNLSBu)
The lawyer, Giogerling Mendez, is a self-described adherent of the Santeria religion, which has roots in West African traditions and beliefs brought to Latin America by slaves.
