CWN Editor's Note: The lynching took place in Jharkand (map), an eastern Indian state that is 68% Hindu, 15% Muslim, and 4% Christian, with 13% adhering to indigenous Sarnaism and other religions.
The man who was killed was a tribal Christian accused of molesting a girl; a tribal Christian leader said that the accusation may have been a pretext to kill the man.
