The Muslim persecution of the two Christian boys in Uganda is reported by Release International and Morning Stlar News.
Already, Muslims in their village in eastern Uganda's Kibuku district have set fire to the home of a Christian adult who had given them refuge. This man's house has been completely gutted.
The two boys, aged 16 and 17, fled in fear for their lives after their own parents threatened to kill them when they learned of their conversion to Christianity seven months earlier.
Apostasy is a capital crime in Islamic law. The Christian adult told an area pastor that he now believed the life of his own family is at risk and said he had lost everything
"I started receiving threatening messages in my phone accusing me of converting the boys to Christianity, as well as housing them in my house without the parents' permission, but I did not take it very seriously," he said, according to Morning Star News.
The arsonists left threatening leaflets behind, warning: "Be informed that we are not yet finished with you. Expect more, worse things are on the way."Christian Today story of teen boys persecution continues
