'Love and narcotic jihad' being used to destroy non-Muslims: Kerala Church Bishop

Kerala Bishop Kallarangatt said, "They have realised that in a democratic country like India, taking up weapons and destroying others is not easy and have adopted various tactics to target non-Muslims. In the eyes of jihadis, non-Muslims should be destroyed."

Pala (Kerala): A church bishop in Kerala Joseph Kallarangatt has alleged that young Catholic girls were largely falling prey to "love and narcotic jihad" in the state and said that these tactics are being used to destroy non-Muslims while addressing devotees on Thursday.  Speaking at a Church celebration in Kottayam district`s Kuruvilangadu, Kallarangatt said, "They have realised that in a democratic country like India, taking up weapons and destroying others is not easy and have adopted various tactics to target non-Muslims. In the eyes of jihadis, non-Muslims should be destroyed. Two weapons are being employed and that includes love jihad and narcotic jihad." The Bishop further alleged, "Jihadis, through love or other means use women from other religions for converting and misusing them for terrorist activities or to make economic gains," adding "Jihadis are those who are trained to lure a girl and brainwash them to disown their parents, their beliefs and religion."
