 PASTOR FALSELY ACCUSED OF MURDER IN MP
 
Bhopal: Religious bigots in the village of Mehendi Kheda are accusing Pastor Kamlesh Tahed (32) and three other local Christians of murdering a young man who was killed in a fight between two local clans, according to reports.

On August 8, 2009 Roop Singh Baria (22) was killed during violence between the Baria and the Tahed clan over Rs.1,000 which had been borrowed by one of the Tahed family members. When members of the Baria clan filed a report with the police about the incident, they implicated Pastor Tahed, Kasna Tahed (25), Ramesh Tahed (26) and Vasna Tahed (36) in the murder. The four men and other local people insist that the Christians were not present when the murder took place.

Commenting on the situation, Pastor Tahed said: “I once was one of them, but in the 20 years since I became a Christian, they have been dragging me into false cases and hate me for my work of evangelism.” In 2001, Pastor Tahed was jailed on false charges of “forcible conversion” for 20 days and released only after a costly court battle to prove his innocence. At last report, he was in hiding and the three other accused believers were in police custody.
