This was followed by the desecration of the Alma Khuris at Chandor on June 18. After a brief lull, the miscreants struck back on July 2, targeting the Alma Khuris again, besides two other crosses at Chandor and Paroda. r While the desecrations were centered around the Chandor-Paroda area till then, the miscreants carried out the first desecration outside these villages two days later on July 4. Two crosses, one each at Ralloi Tollem, Curtorim and another at Davorlim behind the Aquem Power house junction were vandalized by miscreants. On the same night, the vandals desecrated the Nandi and Tulsi Vrundavan at Calconda-Margao. rr June 7: Cross at Chandor on the border with Assolda r June 18: Alma Khuris desecreated r July 2: Three crosses, two at Chandor and Paroda vandalized r July 4: Two crosses at Curtorim and Aquem power house and Nandi statue and Tulsi Vrundavan desecrated at Margao r July 13: Two crosses at Loutolim
