Attack on Catholic School in Karnataka

(26 Feb 2011) The catholic school of divine Providence run by Canossian sisters was attacked Tuesday night by vandals but left none injured, though it created panic among the sisters. The Bishop Peter Machado of Belgaum expressed deep concern at the event as it was the second such attack in the area in the course of one month. The earlier victim was the school and convent of St Joseph at Camp. The police were investigating, but meanwhile a silent protest march was being planned for Monday. These reinforced the protest against the B.K. Somasekhara commission report that denied responsibility of extremists in similar attacks earlier.
