Christian Students in Pakistan Face Relentless Harassment at School
Source excerpt
Pakistan (International Christian Concern) — Maryam Hadayat, a fourth-grade student at a government primary school in Gujranwala, Pakistan, has been continuously harassed by her fellow Muslim classmates. “My fellows abuse my religion,” Hadayat recently said. “They say Christianity is not a good religion and that I should convert to Islam.” For weeks, Hadayat tried to tolerate the bullying. She reported it several times to her teachers, yet no action was taken. Finally, when her patience broke, she went home crying and told her grandmother. The next day, her grandmother went to the school to confront Hadayat’s teacher.
