Orthodox Church Files New Lawsuit in Jerusalem
The New Imperial Hotel, built in 1884 just inside the Old City's Jaffa Gate, boasts hosting Kaiser Wilhelm II when he visited Palestine in 1898. In June 2019 Israel's Supreme Court rejected an appeal by the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate thus approving the sale of the New Imperial Hotel and the Petra Hostel to the Jewish right wing group Ateret Cohanim, which seeks to increase Jewish presence in the Old City. The Patriarchate filed a new indictment 5th August, 2019, with the Jerusalem District Court to annul the Supreme Court's decision citing new evidence including recordings and forged documents allegedly proving the 2004 deals involved bribes by then paid to former Patriarchate employee, Nicholas Papadimas.
