Two Algerian Christians have been tried for breaking Ramadan fasting rules, with hundreds of people protesting outside the courtroom against judicial authorities.
Hocine Hocini, 44, and Salem Fellak, 34, were arrested on August 13 on the building site where they worked in the northern region of Kabylie after they were spotted eating lunch.
The pair admit to eating but insist it happened in a discreet place.
Muslims are not allowed to eat during daylight hours during the Ramadan holy month.
In Algeria breaking the fast can be punished with three months in jail.
The ministry of religious affairs says there are 11,000 Christians for a total population of 35.6 million Algerians

GW should be sentenced to a ‘war crime’ by claiming this is a religion of peace.
He knew when he said it that he was a liar.

We MUST make a firm stand regardless if we are breaking laws, we must deny Islam from America.

Hundreds of people supporting the two accused gathered outside the court at Ain el Hammam and shouted slogans against the legal system. At least there is a vigorous minority out there protesting publicly on behalf of these Christians. That would never happen in a more radical country like Pakistan.
