(International Christian Concern) On March 8, a Christian worship service in Central India was brutally attacked by a mob wielding axes, stones, and wooden clubs. As a result of the attack, at least eight Christians were injured and hospitalized.
According to local sources, the attack took place in the Bastar District of India’s Chhattisgarh State. At approximately 7 P.M., a mob of 30 men, led by a man named Ando Guddi, attacked a house church where 150 Christians had gathered for worship.
The mob stormed the house and attacked the Christians with axes, stones, and wooden clubs. The mob falsely claimed the Christians were involved in illegal religious conversions to justify their assault.
