Christians sustained broken bones and wounds on 8 April when Hindu extremists attacked an open-air gospel event in Telangana state, India.
Police initially refused to help church members after the mob of about 100 Hindu extremists seriously injured four Christians in the attack. Area church leaders submitted a complaint citing inaction by police.
‘We are deeply disappointed that police initially refused to help the Christians who were bleeding when they approached him for help and we wrote to the National Human Rights Commission to intervene’, said the Revd Sunder Paul.
