Muslim students at a high school in Nairobi, Kenya on January 23 beat and stabbed Christians who refused to convert to Islam, the Christian Headlines website reports today (January 30, 2018).
Tensions had been growing for weeks at Jamhuri High School in northern Nairobi. Due to increased hostilities, the boarding school had designated separate bathrooms and separate sections in the library for Christians and Muslims.
On the night of January 23, some Muslim students forcefully tried to induct Christian students into the Islam faith and those who refused were knifed, while others were physically beaten, according to a local source.
At least 35 of the school's 1,500 students were injured, including some Muslims, in the conflict. Some Christian students required hospital treatment for stab wounds. The school has been closed indefinitely.
