Miscreants attack church in Bangalore | Some unidentified miscreants attacked the St. Francis de Sales Church in Hebbagudi on Hosur road in the outskirts
of Bangalore, breaking over 10 window glasses and destroying the statues of Mother Mary and Jesus Christ in the early hours of Thursday. According to sources, about
25 miscreants forcefully entered the St. Francis Church that was spread over two
acres of land, at around 3.a.m. Thousands of people gathered in the church premises
after learning about the incident. "We want justice from the government and the
concerned authorities, so that no Indian citizen can hound the freedom to practice
one''s own religion and everybody can live safely and securely. We want the security.
These unwanted elements should not go on spoiling the peace and security of Indian
citizens," said Father Aronnis, Chief Priest of St. Francis De Sales Church. The
protesters also stalled the traffic on Hosur - Bangalore high way. After the mediation
of Superintendent of Police (Bangalore Rural) Dr. Mahesh, and the BJP MLA of Anekal
constituency, Narayanswamy, the agitators allowed the traffic to flow. Meanwhile,
Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) Chief R.V.Deshpande critisied the
state government for failing to give protection to minority community and demanded
for an investigation by the Cops of Detectives (CoD) over the incident. The Bangalore
Rural Police have registered a case based on the complaint given by the church
authorities and conducting the investigations |
