CBN.com – INDRAMAYA, Indonesia - Muslim extremists in Indonesia have demanded that three Christian women be put to death for allegedly evangelizing Muslim children.

The women are on trial now. They say they were holding an authorized program for Christian students in public schools and were not targeting Muslim kids.

The three Christian housewives have been in jail for more than two months now. The case has caused concern for Christians and stirred the passions of militant Muslims.

CBN News was present in one of the court hearings. Three truckloads of Islamic radicals surged into the courthouse to show defiance to the three Indonesian Sunday school teachers accused of converting Muslim children to Christianity.
