The Polish pastor who made international headlines for kicking provincial officials from his church in Alberta, Canada, is facing potential arrest after a Calgary court issued a warrant against him.
Court of Queen's Bench Justice David Gates authorized police and health officials "to use such reasonable force as they deem appropriate to gain access" to the building of Pastor Artur Pawlowski's The Fortress (Cave) of Adullam church in Calgary, according to a
copy of the court order obtained by
Rebel News.
The warrant, which was issued April 23 but not seen by Pawlowski's lawyer until this week, also forbids Pawlowski or anyone else from interfering with officials attempting to enter his church and, if he resists, permits law enforcement "to do anything necessary" to arrest him, imprison him, and drag him before a judge."The Respondent, Artur Pawlowski, together with any other person at the property ... shall grant access to any Executive Officer (as defined in the [Alberta Public Health Act]) in order for him or her to attend at the Property without notice, during the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., to allow the Executive Officer to exercise his or her powers under [section] 59 of the Act," the warrant reads in part.
"In the event the Respondent, Artur Pawlowski or any other person refuse to grant any Executive Officer access to the Premises or hinders or interferes with the Executive Officer in the exercise of his or her powers, then any member of Police Service ... shall be permitted to accompany and assist the Executive Officer and use such reasonable force as they consider appropriate to gain access to the Premises and allow the Executive Officer (or anyone assisting the Executive Officer) to exercise his or her powers pursuant to section 59 of the Act," the warrant also says.
Comment: Once again Israel has found a way to divide, demean and subjugate Palestinians. Expect the heat to turn up as Israel finds more means to delay and negate the election.
