Udupi: A Christian activist
was brutally assaulted by a group of miscreants allegedly belonging to Bajranga Dal
last night under the jurisdiction of Shirva police station
in the district.
The victim Roshan, a resident of Moodubelle, here, is a member of
Bible Society of India, a Christian body that is authorized to
translate, produce, distribute and market the Holy Bible.
The attack came after a few alleged activists of Bajrang Dal lodged a
complaint with Shirva police station, accusing Roshan of indulging
in conversion. The complaints said that Roshan has been converting
"innocent Hindus" into Christianity.
According to sources, On Friday night at around 10 p.m. miscreants
of the saffron outfit barged into Roshan’s residence, which is also a
prayer house, and assaulted him.
He has been admitted to a hospital for treatment.
