Four Christians imprisoned under false charges in India
Four Christians, including two pastors, were jailed on false charges of conversion activities in Madhya Pradesh’s Betul district on 19 February.
The police ambushed Christians gathered at a family celebration in Udhama village and took seven people into custody, after which four were officially booked and sent to the district jail in Betul, Madhya Pradesh.
According to ICC sources, one of the jailed Christians in Udhama village had invited the two Pastors, one of their wives, and a few more believers for a special meal at his agricultural land.
Before they could start the event, the police arrived and took seven Christians present at the event to the police station. A local Christian leader who went to the police station to petition for the release of the four was threatened with death by both the police and the radical Hindu nationalists gathered at the police station.
