This is in regards to my father, Revd. CM Khanna, Presbyter-in -charge, All Saint's Church. My father has been arrested on 19th November, 2011 on false accusations.
On 28th, Sharia court made a false claim of force conversion by paying money to poor Muslims. Since then People have uploaded videos on YouTube as well as face book. The video is of baptism and not forced conversion, else there wouldn’t have been any video. Since video has gone viral, I have seen multiple comments of hate against my father. Many people have written "We promise to kill all Christian missionaries and burn their buildings, schools and churches", "I am looking for volunteers to find this man", "Is ka Ilaj sirf Azadi hai", "This man can be found in Tyndale Biscoe", "We should burn this priest to death" and many more.... .. There is no support from govt. to remove this video which is causing communal disharmony. I doubt that my father's, mother's and my own phones are getting taped. It seems someone is trying to provoke people against my father in the name of religion.  read more »

A video posted on social networking website Facebook has become the subject of hot talk in Kashmir these days. The video shows a group of young Kashmiri Muslim boys and girls converting to Christianity. In the 8-minute video, religious sermons of Christian belief are being recited and the converts are taking a dip in an artificial pond to adopt the new faith. Chief Priest CM Khanna is shown leading the conversion process.
The issue is viewed with serious concern in the Valley. Kashmir’s Grand Mufti Moulana Bashiruddin has summoned Khanna to explain his position before the “Supreme Court of Islamic Shariat”. In the first place chief priest ignored Mufti’s “warrant”. Mufti Bashir issued a fresh ‘warrant’ to Khanna to appear before his court on November 12.  read more »
