INDIA: Pastor Arrested for Being Attacked


INDIA: Pastor Arrested for Being Attacked
August 24, 2006

The Voice of the Martyrs

While Pastor K. K. Jwala was conducting a worship service on August 20th in the town of Sheopur, not far from Jhalsy in Central India’s Madhya Pradesh state, a group of Hindu radicals stormed his Christian meeting. The militant mob, headed by a local Hindu leader, disrupted the Sunday morning service at approximately 10:30. Once inside, the attackers mercilessly struck Pastor Jwala and several members of the congregation with hockey sticks.

After the brutal beatings took place, Pastor Jwala and a number of his congregants were taken to the police station. Jwala was charged with violating Sections 3 and 4 of the Madhya Pradesh Anti-Conversion Act. He and other Christians attending the service, including three teachers from South India, remain in jail. None of the believers were granted bail.

Earlier this month, legislation in Madhya Pradesh passed anti-conversion bills targeting Christians. These so-called “Freedom of Religion” bills make it mandatory for people to apply for permission to change their religion 30 days before the desired date of conversion. The district collector reserves the right to decline any request, and those not conforming to the new laws face punishment of up to one year’s imprisonment and a fine of 10,000 rupees ($215 U.S.). The radical Hindu BJP party was a primary force in getting these anti-conversion laws passed.

Prayer List


He'll definitely be in my prayers... It would be neat if Christian Cosmos could have a board where users can post prayer requests and make updates on them.
