Next, Compass Direct is reporting that Saudi Arabian officials continue to hold
four Filipino Christians in jail, but have released their wives and children. Saudi
religious police arrested 16 believers at a home Bible study in early January. Earlier
reports indicated that the children's imprisonment was intended to pressure their
parents into revealing more about the activities of the Church. Currently, those that
remain in jail are in solitary confinement and face a possible deportment.
