The FJKM church feels persecuted

The piece of land on which the temple of Ambohimalaza is located is the latest cause for concerns, but it is not the latest one for the current FJKM leaders. In this small town east from the capital city, the owner of the piece of land offered to the FJKM church is longing for recovering it. The church cannot believe it, the transfer has officially been recorded. The troubles are just starting, the judical battle is on. 

In Nosy-Be the same script is on its way to come true. The president of the FJKM, pastor Lala Rasendrahasina, can start to reckon with harder days to come. 

In Toamasina, furnitures dedicated to a church were on the verge of being seized. The situation creates grumble on the church’s top level. The FJKM has recently been sharply targeted by media groups allied to the High Authority of Transition again, mostly due to the Clerical Leaders’ Movement, somehow, far too inclined to support the opposition on behalf ot the whole church. Pastor Lala Rasendrahasina’s very violent arrest and detention back on March 17th, 2009, in the run of the putsch conducted in Antananarivo city, is still a very lively memory.
