History
On March 9, 2013, Joseph Colony experienced a widespread violence.[1] This was triggered by an unverified blasphemy allegation against a local Christian individual.[1] The disorder resulted in significant property damage, with over 100 houses reportedly ransacked and burned.[1] The residents, including children, were forced to evacuate.[1] Police records confirm that at least 25 houses were incinerated. The extent of the damage was comprehensive, encompassing every house in the area, with evidence of broken and burnt windows, as well as looted property.[1]
