EGYPT TO HOST SUMMIT AMID CONCERN ABOUT PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIAN GIRLS Meeting unlikely to tackle international concern over human rights violations [ANS]
excerpt:
As part of the latest campaign by Muslim extremists against Christians, the U.S. Copts Association claims it has received "troubling reports (that) indicate that supermarkets publicizing shopping contests are in fact singling out Coptic girls for conversion to Islam.
CONTROVERSIAL PAPERWORK
Once alerted to the girls religion, store employees notify the young Christian woman that she has won a contest. To claim her prize, she is asked to proceed to the upper levels of the store where her reward awaits. Once upstairs, the girl is asked to sign documentation confirming receipt of her reward," the organization said in a statement to ASSIST News Service (ANS).
"However, the paperwork is documentation for the conversion of an individual to Islam; and the young girl is unaware that her signature is in fact official confirmation of her conversion to Islam," it added.
Coptic women who resist are reportedly accused of theft and strip-searched. "There are several reports of the rape of these young Christian women. Despite their families desperate attempts to rescue their daughters, the girls are not returned to their families," the U.S. Copts Association said. [full story]
