Radical Muslims beat young Christian woman unconscious in Kenya

Hard-line Muslims beat unconscious a twenty-one-year-old Christian woman in Isiolo, Kenya. She was a member of a Somalian family that fled persecution in 2019.

 

“They began hitting me with sticks and a blunt object, which injured my back and my right hand,” Fozia told Morning Star News. “There I fainted for five hours and regained consciousness at the hospital,” the victim explained. She was hospitalised for two days.

The siblings had gone outside their home to try to restore the water supply at about 7 p.m. when the assailants approached, the young woman said.

“There were noisy shouts calling us infidels,” she told Morning Star News. They said things as: “We know you do not belong to us. We have got hold of you today – we have no mercy on you people. You need to return to where you came from.”

About four months after the family left Nairobi and resettled in Isiolo, about 170 miles north of the Kenyan capital, area Muslims began harassing the family, the victim further explained. “Muslims started questioning us why we were not attending Friday worship at the mosque,”

After obtaining a medical report, she reported the assault to police, who arrested two suspects the next day. Identified only as Jarson and Musambir Adullai, they were released on a bond of 20,000 Kenyan shillings (US$185).
