  • The Strelnikoff Mary of Help of Brezje controversy began after a depiction of Mary of Help of Brezje holding a rat instead of Jesus was published by a Slovenian music group Strelnikoff as the cover of their album Bitchcraft. The album was made in protest of the official views of the Roman Catholic Church in Slovenia and the statements of some of its highest representatives on the subject of abortion. The first to condemn this depiction was Dr. Franc Cardinal Rode, who was Bishop of Ljubljana at that time. This was followed by general public outcry and expressions of the inappropriateness of the misuse of one of the most known symbols of Slovenian Catholicism. The State Attorney's Office in Ljubljana received 3,867 public protests and 1,208 requests for indictment. These were united in one that was at first rebuffed before the District Court in Celje; however the state prosecutor Elizabeta Gyorkos filled a complaint. The group members also received many phone and mail threats. In August of 2003, the indictment was refused by Ljubljana Higher Court as well. In accordance with the Constitution of Slovenia and the Law of Slovenia the court concluded that the authors were "tasteless in their artistic project, however they did not surpass the boundary of allowed at all."
