Human rights organisations claim that non-Muslims who have fled war-torn countries like Syria and Iraq are suffering from ‘physical injuries’
Christians and other non-Muslims living are living in “fear and panic” while staying at refugee centres in Germany, human rights organisations have claimed.
Charity Open Doors has said that more than 40,000 refugees who have fled Islamic State terrorists in war-torn countries such as Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan are being harassed because they are not Muslim.
Claims of physical and verbal abuse in the centres are rampant.
The charity said that a survey carried out among non-Muslim refugees saw that 32% had even received death threats.
And 37% said that had been physically attacked.
Among the refugees surveyed, 80% of them said they believe they are being targeted because they are non-Muslim.
A priest in Berlin has even claimed that refugees are being forced to take part in Islamic prayer.
Open Doors said in a statement: “Our political leaders have not taken appropriate measures to protect the Christian minority.
“The impression that this dramatic development is being suppressed and ignored has solidified.”
Markus Rode, head of the German-based organisation, added: “We’re doing this on behalf of many volunteers who feel intimidated, as well as at the request of the police, who aren’t allowed to say that this is happening.”
