Indian Priest Kidnapped In Yemen, On Good Friday Online Rumors Suggest ISIS


If rumours are to be believed, an Indian priest reportedly abducted by ISIS militants in Yemen will be crucified on Good Friday. Tom Uzhunnalil was believed to have been kidnapped from a retirement home in Yemen, by ISIS militants who attacked the residence on March 4. According to the International Business Times India, the group shot 16 people, including four nuns, at the Aden home which is run by missionaries. No one took responsibility for the attack, however, Yemeni officials blamed it on ISIS.



The Franciscan Sisters of Siessen posted on Facebook claiming that they had been informed of Father Uzhannalil's torture and said that they believed that he will be crucified on the occasion of Good Friday on March 25.

The Sisters said, "This calls for serious concerted prayers from all of us."

On the other hand, Salesian Sisters of Don Bosco told the International Business Times India, "There is no information about the whereabouts of Father Tom. We are only praying for him."

According to a handwritten note - published on Aleteian (a Christian website) - by a nun who was present at time of the attack, five young Ethiopian Christian men had run to inform the sisters that ISIS were coming to kill them.
