Suspended lives
Tuesday at Jornal da Noite
Canon law is clear: priests can not be deputies or collaborate with political parties. For the Catholic Church, José Martins Júnior has broken the norm more than once because he was also mayor and regional deputy of Madeira. Therefore, he was given the order to hand over the keys of the church of Ribeira Seca, his parish. It's been 40 years and the priest never obeyed, claiming that he had not had the right to defend himself. The episode Suspended Lives (Tuesday, in Jornal da Noite CIS) tells the story of this standoff between the Bishop of Funchal, which in turn has the laws of the Church , and the "rebellious priest", who has the support of the people of Ribeira Seca, whom they have never missed, whether at parties, weddings or baptisms, whether by sadness, funeral or other tragedies.
