[The Christian Post] 12 Mar 2009--Attacks against Christians in the Indian state of Orissa are continuing despite reassurances from the Indian Government of greater security, says the Archbishop of Cuttack-Bhubaneswar.
According to Archbishop Raphael Cheenath, Catholic priests returning to their parishes after last year’s violence "are still not free to move about and the police themselves have recommended they request police escorts ahead of time [when traveling]," reports the Catholic News Agency.
The Archbishop said that Christians were still being persecuted and moreoever Hindu extremists are "not allowing them to use public restrooms when extremists are using them."
People can be punished if they enter churches and men are often kidnapped while women are forced to wear degrading outfits, he said.
