A report describing the poor treatment of Christian refugees in a reception centre in Rothenburg preceeded huge changes by the centre, making it an example for other refugee centres to follow, it was reported in November.
Showing there needed to be no more ‘integration strategies which happened at the expense of Christians’, a list of recommendations were made including: increasing the numbers of non-Muslim staff; training of staff about inter-religious clashes and their history; the education of asylum seekers about the nature of religious freedom.
Christians threatened
Prior to this, Christians had been threatened with beheadings, in notices posted on the walls of the centre, and indiscriminate sentencing by shari’a councils.
