A Christian man was beaten and imprisoned in Mexico in what has been described as "the latest instance in a long trend of persecution".
 
Lauro Nunez, from Chachalacas in the Oaxaca region, was attacked by a mob on Easter Monday as he attempted to return to his village to visit his family. He had previously been expelled from his home for his evangelical Christian faith.
 
International Christian Concern (ICC), which reported the event, said it was one example of many attacks on minority Christian groups in Oaxaca. Mexico has a dominant Roman Catholic population (82.7 per cent) with evangelicals (5 per cent) and pentecostals (1.6 per cent) a minority.

A spokesman for the charity said he was "very troubled" by the attack which he described as "yet another instance of violence perpetrated against minority Christians" in the central American country.
