Four years ago, Sunday Adelaja who is the founding Pastor of the Embassy of God in Kiev, Ukraine was accused of fraud by the government of Ukraine in relation to a capital venture company that went broke due the global economic meltdown in 2008.
Several members of the church are currently imprisoned for the past three years without trial simply for refusing to testify against Adelaja. After 4 years of investigations and pre-trial, the Ukrainian government still has no evidence to proceed to trial but have frozen his assets.
This is a case of xenophobia and discrimination on religious, political and racial grounds towards Adelaja who publicly supported the 2004 Orange Revolution that brought down Yanukovych; who returned back to power in 2008 when the persecution against Adelaja began!
