Swiss citizen arrested in Morocco (for spreading Christianity)
2009-12-07
17 people including one Swiss citizen have been arrested in Morocco, accused of trying to spread Christianity.

According to the Moroccan interior ministry, authorities intervened after hearing about evangelical missionary efforts. They feared that the mission could lower the religious values of the kingdom.

The Federal Department of Foreign Affairs has not yet confirmed the arrest of the Swiss. The other detainees, are said to be from Guatemala, South Africa and Morocco itself.
Yet another example of "Muslim Tolerance (tm)".

How much lower than the bottom of the lowest septic tank can they go? The Muzzies have "The Lowest" title locked up for the next 10 millenia.

#1  And yet Morocco is one of the "moderate Muslim" countries. Imagine the outcry from these "moderates" if non-Muslim countries arrested people for trying to spread Islam.
