Hi, Mates! It is with great sorrow that we learn that Fr. Eusebio Ferrao was murdered in Goa. We are given to understand that Fr. Ferrao spoke out against communal violence in Goa. If so, he is to be regarded as a Goan martyr who advocated communal harmony in a country which, until the recent incidents against Muslims and Christians, has been peaceful. Requiescat in pace!
The details we in Australia have are rather sketchy so we would appreciate any further information about any investigations ( if any) into the death of this young peaceloving Catholic priest who had been focused on social reform and justice to all in Goa -- whether Hindus, Muslims or Christians. Regards! Martinho
