Over 550 Egyptian Girls Kidnapped By Islamic Men

John 16:2 Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God.

A group of Middle Eastern activists is speaking out about girls in Egypt being forced into marriage with Islamic men and ordered to convert from Christianity.

The group is pointing out while the world is enraged over 270 Christian girls kidnapped by the Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram in Nigeria, over 550 Christian girls in Egypt have been kidnapped or forced into marriages with Islamic men over the last three years.

The Association of Victims of Abduction and Forced Disappearance reported that in addition to the marriages, the girls who are Coptic Christians have crosses tattooed on their body burned off with acid.

“Before the revolution there would be five or six girls disappear each month,” AVAFD founder Ebram Louis told the Christian Post.  “Now the average is 15 [each month].”

The AVAFD says that the Islamists in government and on police forces are complicit in the kidnapping, rape and forced conversions of the girls.  They cite the case of Nadia Makram, kidnapped at age 14 in 2011.  Her parents knew the 48-year-old Muslim man who took their daughter and went to police who said they wouldn’t do anything to rescue the kidnapped girl.

AVAFD says if police do get involved, they meet with the girls when they are surrounded by the Muslims who kidnapped her and tell her what to say to the police.
