Complicity of Authorities, Intimidation, Threats and Harassment, Mob violence, Physical assault
On 11th October, a mob of about 40 people gathered outside a Christian woman’s house situated at Ramgarh, Jharkhand. The mob barged into her house and disrupted an ongoing prayer session. They then threatened and verbally abused her and physically assaulted her brother who was present there. They further destroyed the medicines that were kept in the house. The mob then read out few passages from the Holy Bible and mocked her in the presence of her family members and other villagers. When the victims called the police, the police asked them not to hold prayer services anymore.
