Four Christian families have had their homes destroyed in a village in India’s Maharashtra state after they refused to abandon their faith.
A group of about 20 people in Midapalli village, located in Gadchiroli district, confronted six Christian families, totalling around 25 individuals, and issued an ultimatum, according to the UK-based advocacy group Christian Solidarity Worldwide.
The houses of four families who refused to convert were then destroyed. When the matter was brought to the local police, the authorities took the side of the perpetrators and offered no protection to the families.
