[Christian Newswire] 22 Oct 2008--Anti-Christian radicals in India's Jharkand state have threatened local believers with organized violence modeled after the attempted genocide of Christians in neighboring Orissa, according to reports received by Gospel for Asia's headquarters in Carrollton, Texas.

GFA missionary Mohan Girji was badly beaten by anti-Christian extremists on Friday. The next day, a large group of Hindu radicals gathered with the purpose of bringing Orissa's persecution rampage to their state as well.

"We will make our district like Orissa," the extremists declared, referencing the state where the worst persecution against Christians erupted nearly two months ago.
