FACTS
The defendants were municipal officials at the time when they seized and
arrested Father Feliciano Gomez. They made him pass through the door of the vestry
and afterwards took him to the municipal building and there told him that he was under
arrest. The defendants accused Father Gomez, not by reason of a crime but arbitrarily.
Father Gomez went there to celebrate mass as a priest of the Roman Catholic Church,
and this question also refers to a Roman church that he is said to own.
