Arrest those trying to destroy communal harmony of Goa

A prominent leader of a Christian denomination from Sodiem-Siolim who was swiftly arrested (obviously at the behest of our RSS-remote controlled CM, Pramod Sawant to somehow bring in the controversial anti-conversion law on the lines of some BJP-ruled states to slowly start harassing the Christians in the state) based on some flimsy accusations of alleged illegal religious conversions and provoking religious sentiments was finally released on bail in Goa. Well, as far as everyone knows, the said religious sect leader has been conducting his prayer services at Siolim for the last so many years and mostly Hindus have been seen flocking there in huge numbers at the same premises in Goa.
