Manila, Philippines, Jul 6, 2021 / 16:01 pm (CNA). The Federation of Asian Bishops’ Conferences (FABC) on Tuesday mourned the death of Jesuit priest Stanislaus Lourduswamy, and called him “martyr of the marginalized people.” The Indian priest popularly known as Fr. Stan Swamy died on Monday, July 5, at the age of 84; he spent the last eight months of his life jailed on terror charges for his activism on behalf of Indian society’s lowest castes. In a statement on Tuesday, Cardinal Charles Maung Bo of Yangon, FABC president, said Father Swamy “redefined his priesthood, extending his altar to the streets and hills of those obnoxious corners of injustice.”
