INDIA: Going Rate to Kill Pastors: $250

Hindu extremist groups are offering money, food and alcohol to anyone who 
murders Christians and destroys their homes.

The violence is nothing new in Orissa, India, where India’s Communist Party 
estimates that more than 500 Christians have been killed by Hindu mobs in Orissa 
since late August, 12 times more than official government claims of only 40 
homicides.

But now the stakes are even higher – and pastors have a bounty on their heads.

Faiz Rahman, chairman of Good News India, said Hindu militants are targeting 
Christian leaders, the Christian Post reported. “The going price to kill a 
pastor is $250,” he said. Rahman, a head of several orphanages in Orissa State, 
said he’s helped 25 pastors to leave refugee camps, but 250 Christian leaders 
are still in shelters. “All of the pastors are high value targets,” Rahman told 
the UK-based Release International. “We’ve got to get them out of the refugee 
camps.”

An All-India Christian Council spokesman said, “People are being offered rewards 
to kill, and to destroy churches and Christian properties. They are being 
offered foreign liquor, chicken, mutton and weapons. They are given petrol and 
kerosene.” World Net Daily

Pray against this and ask the Lord to protect Pastors from this terrible plot 
against them.
He frustrates the ways of the wicked Psalm 146;9b
