Three Elderly Italian Nuns Raped, Murdered In Burundi Convent
AFP. ^ | 08 September 2014

Posted on 09/08/2014 8:35:18 AM PDT by george76

Three elderly Italian nuns were sexually assaulted and murdered in twin attacks in their convent in the capital of Burundi, police said today as a hunt was launched for their killers.

Police initially reported that two nuns were stabbed to death yesterday afternoon. The killer then battered one of the two with a rock, before fleeing the convent.

Italian authorities named the first two killed as Olga Raschietti, 83, and Lucia Pulici, 75, both Roman Catholic nuns.

But in the early hours of today morning, another nun in the same convent was killed, her body beaten and head hacked off. Colleagues named her as Bernadette Boggia, aged 79.

“After the discovery of the two nuns who were brutally killed... the decapitated body of the third nun was found,” Deputy Director General of Police Godefroid Bizimana told AFP.

...

In 2011, a Croatian nun and an Italian charity worker were killed in an apparent botched robbery in northern Burundi.

The small nation in Africa’s Great Lakes region emerged in 2006 from 13 years of brutal civil war and its political climate remains fractious ahead of presidential polls due in June 2015.

Looks like it is time again for my standard insult to Islam:

"Islam is a degenerate, psychotic cult, created by a murderous child molester and currently supported and maintained by self-flagellating, illiterate, effeminate cowards."

Come and get me, Muhammad.

The women weren’t raped. The muslimes prefer to call it “converted.” And they weren’t murdered. The religion of peace considers it releasing them from their earthly bondage so they can serve Allah.

When will Westerners quit judging the actions of peaceable muslimes through their bigoted Judeo-Christian filters?

I read the article ... it doesn’t say.

According to wiki (hah!) mohammedans are about 3% of the population of Burundi. It could have been them, it could also have some connection to the Hutu/Tutsi tribal hate-fest.

Maybe you’ll consider the CIA a more reliable source:

Catholic 62.1%, Protestant 23.9% (includes Adventist 2.3% and other Protestant 21.6%), Muslim 2.5%, other 3.6%, unspecified 7.9% (2008 est.)

https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/by.html

It could be random sicko perverts. We have them here, too.

OK so the CIA sez the mohammedans are 2.5% of the population.

That’s not meaningfully different from wiki (hah!).

Thanks for the confirmation.

Burundi is far enough south and inland that the Moslems never really got there.

The perps misread the koran, thinking they would get 72-year-old virgins. Idiots, it’s 72 virgins in the afterlife.
