The Times of London has a troubling story today on Hindu extremists in the Indian province of Orissa who are offering rewards to those who kill Christians:
Extremist Hindu groups offered money, food, and alcohol to mobs to kill Christians and destroy their homes, according to Christian aid workers in the eastern state of Orissa . . . .
The U.S.-based head of a Christian organization that runs several orphanages in Orissa—one of India’s poorest regions—claims that Christian leaders are being targeted by Hindu militants and carry a price on their heads. “The going price to kill a pastor is $250 (£170),” Faiz Rahman, the chairman of Good News India, said.
A spokesman for the All-India Christian Council said: “People are being offered rewards to kill, and to destroy churches and Christian properties. They are being offered foreign liquor, chicken, mutton, and weapons. They are given petrol and kerosene.”
