TURA: The Garo Baptist Convention (ABDK) has expressed shock and strong condemnation at the recent abduction of a retired school teacher and father of Fr Francis N Marak from his residence by unidentified miscreants.
“We are deeply anguished by this mindless act and appeal to the abductors to release the victim immediately and unconditionally without causing further physical or mental harm to the victim as well as their immediate family members,” it said in a statement.
Meanwhile, the ABDK has also appealed to all its members to take part in the silent rally being organized by the Catholic Church in Tura on June 28 as a mark of solidarity with the organizers and the victim’s family.
