Guatemala authorities raid religious sect’s compound after abuse reports

Post: # 112939Post CountZero »

Guatemalan authorities searched the compound of an extremist ultra-orthodox Jewish sect Friday, taking at least 160 minors and 40 women into protective custody after reports of abuse.

 Interior Minister Francisco Jiménez said the National Civil Police and members of military participated in the raid on the Lev Tahor group’s community about 55 miles southeast of the capital.

 “The protection of boys and girls is an absolute priority,” Jiménez said.

 Guatemala’s Attorney General’s Office said in a statement on the social platform X that suspected bones of one child were found. The office said a complaint was made in November of possible crimes including forced pregnancies, mistreatment of minors and rape.

My point is that any religion can be twisted/corrupted. Even the Devil can cite scripture for his purposes.
