Thiruvananthapuram - Two Indian men were arrested on Monday over an attack on a college teacher who had his hand cut off for setting an exam question that allegedly insulted Muslims, police said.
TJ Joseph, 52, had his right arm severed at the wrist as he was returning home from church with his mother and sister on Sunday, and has since undergone an operation to have the limb sown back on.
Joseph, a lecturer at a private Christian-run college in the southern state of Kerala, has been on bail since April after being arrested over a question in internal exams that some Muslim groups claimed included an insulting reference to the Prophet Muhammad.
"An eight-member gang blocked his vehicle and chopped off his right arm," B Sandya, inspector general of the local police told AFP.
"It was a planned operation. We suspect a radical Muslim group who targeted him before."
Sandya said police had traced the attackers' vehicle and made two arrests.
Five doctors worked for 16 hours to re-attach Joseph's hand, but the outcome of the operation was uncertain.
In the Kerala assembly, state Home Minister Kodiyeri Balakrishnan described the attack as "Taliban-type" and "barbaric".
Joseph's school, Newman College, has declined to reveal the precise nature of the exam question behind the dispute to avoid further inflaming inter-religious tensions.
We don’t want to offend the Muslims, but there is nothing that does not offend Muslims.
I think you have found the heart of the matter.
The question was multiple choice.
Muhammed would most likely be aroused by:
A. A six year old girl.
B. A six year old boy.
C. A six month old goat.
D. All of the above
But these were moderate Muslims. Extremists would have cut off his head.
Thank goodness for moderate Muslims.
And the muzzies were outraged at the age of the goat. Everyone knows the prophet — peace be upon him — liked his goats a little more mature than that.
(When they’re too young, they don’t push back correctly when you’ve got them at the edge of a cliff.)
Have you seen this story?
Ah, Now I understated! It was the goat question that offended their sensibilities. Six month old goat indeed! Nothing less than one year old would be proper!
You got it. Six year old girls and boys... well now that’s pure prophet pleasure!
But a six month old goat. That’s over the line!
A muzzie’s got sensibilities, don’t ya know!
Well, at least we now have NASA working to make them feel better......things like this will never happen again/sarc
This sort of nonsense happens wherever muslims live with others.....be it in India, China, the Phillipines, Thailand etc.
Why do our “leaders” ignore this fact?
The Left has been screaming for years that the earth is overpopulated. I think I have a line on which 1.2 billion can go.

Coming to a neighborhood near you!
Trite.
