A court in Spain acquitted a priest, the Rev. Custodio Ballester of Barcelona, last week after the man endured a legal battle lasting eight years for making comments against Islam in 2017. “I thank God and the Christian people who supported me with their prayers and their presence in court,” Ballester stated to Fox News Digital. The Association of Muslims Against Islamophobia filed a complaint in 2017 against Ballester, along with another priest and a journalist, after Ballester criticized Islam on a talk show where all three individuals were present.
