PONDICHERRY, INDIA, January 8, 2003: The chief superintendent of prisons at India’s Pondicherry Central Jail, Mr. G. David, is facing a judicial inquiry after being accused of forcibly converting inmates to Christianity. A Hindu organization called Munanni is also asking for his suspension and calling upon state legislators to adopt an anti-conversion law similar to that in the neighboring state of Tamil Nadu. Munanni alleges that at least three prisoners were baptized in the prison in recent weeks. While David makes no attempt to hide his Christian faith, he denies being involved in conversions.
