[Religious Intelligence] 6 Oct 2008--Four people have been arrested in the Indian State of Orissa after a Catholic nun was raped more than a month ago. At least one police officer has been dismissed, according to authorities.

The 29-year-old nun on August 25 reported that she had been raped by a man from a Hindu mob in Kandhamal district.

The police have been criticized for having acted too slowly to restore calm to the area, where there has been ongoing violence between Hindus and Christians over recent weeks.
