Pastor Sent to Jail for Praying in a Believer’s House in Hassan

Pastor Sent to Jail for Praying in a Believer’s House in Hassan
Arakalgud, Hassan Dt. (Karnataka): Pastor Daniel Raghu (32) is in charge of a House Church called the New India Church of God at Arakalgud in Hassan District in Karnataka. He lives with his old father Sri. Lingaiah, and his wife Smt. Vimala (28), and two small children, a son (7) and a daughter (5). He has a membership of about 50 believers in his church, and he has been serving the Lord during the last 8 years.
On Friday, 16-9-2011, round about 1.30 in the afternoon, he visited a believer’s house at a village called Jamanahally, about 35 Kms from Sakleshpur, for a prayer meeting. Just as the prayer began, about 20 Hindu Sangh Parivarists surrounded the house and began shouting at the believers and the pastor that they were trying to forcibly convert people to Christianity. Then they sent for the police and got Pastor Daniel arrested and took him to the Sakleshpur police station. After detaining him in the police station for a few hours and conducting some sort of an inquiry, they charge-sheeted him under section IPC 153-A, and sometime late in the evening produced him before the magistrate who sent him to the Sakleshpur Sub Jail.
The GCIC is in touch with the pastor and has also appointed Mr. Yeshwant, as his lawyer, who has already filed an application trying to get a bail for the pastor. Please pray for him.  read more »
