The Ranaghat nun gang rape case is being followed by the global media and more closely by the Vatican Radio sparking a debate as to how safe is India for Christians.
Vatican Radio, which describes itself as ‘the voice of the Pope and the Church in dialogue with the world’, has been covering the incident intensively.
Since Saturday, Vatican Radio has been covering all incremental developments on the attack such as protest marches and statements of condemnation from different bishops in India.
It is clear from the coverage in the global media that their attention was drawn because the incident couples two serious crimes – rape and attack on religious minorities.
