Muslims Surround Church in Upper Egypt, Threaten to Kill Priest

(AINA) -- Hundreds of 
Muslims surrounded the church of St George today in the village of Beni 
Ahmed West, 7 KM south of Minya, vowing to kill its priest Father George 
Thabet, who was serving the morning mass and was locked in the church 
with a number of parishioners. Security forces arrived five hours later 
and escorted Father George in a police car to the Coptic Diocese in 
Minya. "Father George looked as if he was the criminal, leaving his 
church in a police car." said one of the eye-witnesses. The Coptic youth who 
were attending mass remained inside church to defend it from Muslim attacks.
Eyewitnesses reported the Muslim mob, in their white 
dresses and long beards, chanted "We will kill the priest, we will kill 
him and no one will prevent us." One of their leaders said that they 
will "…cut him to pieces."
It was reported that no police or security of any kind was present during the 
events.
The attacks on St. George Church trace back to March 23, 2011, when Muslims had 
surrounded the 100-year old church, which held a renovation 
license, and ordered the church officials to stop construction 
immediately and undo what they had completed, otherwise they would 
demolish the church after Friday prayers. They had placed several 
demands on the church authorities, including the banning of Father 
George Thabet from Beni Ahmad village and gave him a time limit of 35 
days, later extended to 50 days, to leave the village with his family. 
Muslims accused him of making extensions to the church and of causing 
sectarian strife. The Archbishop of Minya had sent a priest two months 
ago to assist Father George, in order to diffuse the situation, but the 
Muslims resumed their pressure on the church (AINA 4-9-2011).
Muslims started congregating near the church in small numbers since the evening 
of June 21, after learning that Father George is returning to the 
village. It is believed they were angry and wanted to kill him because 
he defied the ban they placed on him.
The archdiocese of Minya 
issued today a statement formally reiterating its strong dissatisfaction with 
the incident and denouncing the "return of the Salafists to 
besiege St. George's church again, some carrying weapons, threatening to kill 
the priest unless he leaves the village."
The statement 
rejected the interference in church affairs, saying the issue of care of the 
church is the responsibility of the church authorities alone, and 
not of any person or group. It called on government officials and 
security authorities to do their part in upholding the rule of law and 
maintaining security in the country.
The archdiocese refused any 
preconditions to negotiate with political and security officials, 
demanding the security forces disperse the demonstrations before any 
negotiations can take place.
After Father George left the church 
the Muslim mob remained until security arrived to disperse them. The 
Muslims threatened that if they do not hear from the military commander 
by tonight that the priest is banned from returning to the village, they will 
hold their Friday prayers tomorrow, June 24, inside St. George's 
church.
