In Indonesia, a court will proceed with a controversial blasphemy case against Jakarta's Christian Governor Basuli Tjajaja Purnama, who is accused of insulting the Quran. A panel of judges today rejected a call by lawyers defending Purnama to strike down the case because it had violated the ethnic Chinese politician's human rights and breached procedures.<br/><br/>Purnama denied the charges in the first hearing on December 13th. The case is seen as a test of religious freedom in the world's largest Muslim-majority nation. Purnama, better known by his nickname Ahok is running for re-election against two Muslim candidates. He could be jailed for up to five years if found guilty of breaking Indonesia's tough blasphemy laws.
