Intimidation, Threats and Harassment
Hindu Fundamentalists threatened Christians attending the Indian Pentecostal Church at Kattekalyan to convert back to Hinduism on September 13, 2014. The believers have been receiving threats very often for the past one month. When the fundamentalists had come to speak to Christians on Saturday, they verbally abused the villagers and threatened them for not converting back to Hinduism. The verbal attack was interuppted when the Police saw the altercation and calmed down the mob of about 20 persons. Two years back, the Pastor was beaten by the fundamentalists for conducting the services at the village. No report was filed till press time.
