 PERSECUTION REPORT IN TWO STATES OF INDIA
 Christians fearful in West Bengal
 
August 26, 2009: Anti-Christian people from the Moukahali Gram Panchayat repeatedly attacked the Christians and threatened to kill them if they continue to practice their faith in Chok Borhampur Village, Bishnupur, West Bengal.

According to an EFI source, on August 20, about 15 anti- Christian people armed with knives, lathis and iron rods shouting anti-Christian’s slogans attacked a Christian identified as Khagen Majhi and threatened him of ‘incidents like Orissa’s Kandhamal situation in West Bengal’ and to disown the Christian faith or face dire consequences.

Running from one Christian house to another in rage, the anti-Christians also beat up a believer identified as Manik Jana and also verbally abused and manhandled a Christian woman identified as Mrs Jharna Pradhan.

The same incidents of persecution took place on July 29 this year and on December 25, 2006. The Christians have filed a police complaint at Bishnupur police station on July 30.

After these repeated attacks, the Christians are living in fear and under tension.
