Pupils kill teacher 'for desecrating the Koran'
22-Mar-07 00:08 GMT
MUSLIM pupils beat a teacher to death yesterday after accusing her of desecrating the Koran at a school in Nigeria.
Oluwatoyin Olusase, a Christian, was attacked after an Islamic religious knowledge exam at the school in the north-eastern state of Gombe.
It was not clear exactly what Ms Olusase had done that angered the students.
Police last night confirmed the killing and said their intervention had stopped the incident from turning into a riot.
"We have received information that a female teacher has been lynched by her students. We are investigating," said Joseph Ibi, the state police commissioner for Gombe.
At least 15,000 people have died in religious, communal and political violence in Nigeria since 1999.

Wake Up Call:
6 Months After the Thai Coup, Islamist Insurgency is Raging
By Zachary Abuza
Last week a group of militants in southern Thailand threw a small bomb in front of a small passenger van, disabling it, opened the side door, and shot all nine passengers, including three women and a young girl, execution style. Though several suspects have been arrested, the attack was reminiscent of the savagery of Algeria or Kashmir, and portends a bloody year in the restive south. The attack was also the latest in a string of more audacious and provocative attacks from Muslim insurgents.
Few realize the extent of the conflict in the south. So many have bought into the Thai government’s complacency and general sense of denial. The conflict in southern Thailand dwarfs any other conflict in Southeast Asia. Within the region, the United States remains pre-occupied with the southern Philippines, desperate for any success to justify the hundreds of millions of dollars invested there. There is alarming sectarian bloodletting in Indonesia’s outer islands. Though on a much smaller scale than southern Thailand, we should pay attention to it, simply because JI is involved. The situation in southern Thailand deserves greater attention.
More than 2,100 people have been killed in 38 months, and the government has proven completely incapable of responding to the situation and stemming the violence. That has given the insurgents considerable momentum, and caused a greater number of moderate Muslim civilians to be more supportive of the insurgents...
