MUMBAI, India – A Catholic priest in India has called the arrest of nine Christians for “attempted conversion” a “travesty of justice.”
The Christians were arrested on Jan. 27 in the city of Indore, a day after a mob of Hindu militants invaded a Pentecostal prayer meeting taking place at the Satprakashan Sanchar Kendra (Center for the Light of Truth), a media center owned by the Society of the Divine Word, a Catholic religious order that lets other Christian groups use the premises.
