Mangaluru, Feb 3: Dr Aloysius Paul D’Souza, bishop of Mangaluru has condemned the church attack in Delhi and has demanded stern action against the attackers.
Dr Aloysius D’Souza has said that measures should be taken so that such incidents do not take place again in the future.
In a statement the bishop has said “It is sad to note that five such incidents happened in a span of 2 months. It is a humiliation for God as well as human beings where the holy host was touched. The union and state governments should take initiatives to stop such incidents where sentiments of Christians are hurt.”
St Alphonsa's church in Vasanth Kunj area of South Delhi was vandalised on Monday, February 2, the fifth such incident since December 2014.
The unidentified people had ransacked the sacristy cupboards, opened the tabernacle and took the ciborium and emptied it by putting the hosts on the table.
