Hi Brothers.
I live in Angola.
I can assure you as brother Fonseca said none died, but something happened.
There is not yet a formal report from Police or from Bethel.
It is was the first day of convention for these brothers (I had mine in 07/July) on last friday, a sister that was there said that there was a very strong smell (like corpse) near the bothroom of women.
Then at some point during the morning most of them were sisters who were just fainting. None died, they just fainted because of this very strong smell.
I recieved this photos from a brother that was in this convention. He said the convention had to be postponed, they just had the morning of friday 25/08/2017.
The police was called and they arrested 3 men suspected to do it. Now there is no formal report from police yet.
This is the part people are especulating:
Angola was under election at 23/08/2017.
There were suspectious of attach that some people would make to us because we dont vote.
All congregations recieved a letter from bethel (before that week) warning all congregations to not make any type of public preach or have meeting during the day of election, and if you go out in the field to conduct studies be very carefull during this day.
In my congregation we had Circuit Overseer visit at that week, and the CO decided that we would not go in the field neither have any meeting on 23/08/2017.
Then on friday these brother during the convetion add this "attack".
Some people say it may be some policital party who are unhappy because we dont vote.
I have to say that it looks like an attack but at least the good news is that our brothers are fine!!!
