Srinagar: December 1, 2011. Rev. C M Khanna, Pastor of the All Saints Church from Srinagar, Kashmir has been released on bail, after spending 10 days in police custody at Kothi Bagh police station, Srinagar for a bond of Rs. 25,000. Rev. Khanna had been accused of blasphemy under sections 295 A and section 153 A of the Penal Code. EFI welcomes this decision and would like people to remember that the Church has served the community in the valley for more than 130 years.
