A Muslim mob brutally attacked and killed a Christian woman because her husband converted from Islam, according to recent reports.
Mamwikomba Mwanika reportedly opened the door to her Ugandan home only to see an angry mob on the other end, Morning Star News reports.
“The attackers dragged our mother outside the house as she screamed and cried for help,” one of her children said.
The attack came a mere month after a similar mob slayed her husband’s brother.
“I know that the attackers are looking for me,” Mamwikomba’s husband George Mwanika said. “We are seeking God’s protection and His peace. May God give me the courage to continue sharing the love of Christ to those who are lost, as Jesus said we should love our enemies.”
Though Uganda’s religious climate skews heavily Christian, Islam became politically significant in the culture in the 1970s.
Ugandan Christians plead with the outside world to aid them against Muslim extremists, according to the Washington Times, but their cries appear to fall on deaf ears.
Muslim groups have attempted to kill a former sheikh who converted to Christianity and members of the clergy who mysteriously disappeared earlier this year.
