Shillong/Dimapur, May 21 2014 :
Reports of alleged Satan worshiping are increasing by the year in the North East region.
It was in Mizoram and then in Nagaland and now in Meghalaya.
The East Khasi Hills district administration in Meghalaya has even went to the extent of clamping Prohibition Act such as Section 144 CrPC prohibiting the 'devil worship' in the whole district.
Last month in Garo Hills in Meghalaya, some residents of Tura had seen young people indulging in Satan worship.
Sources said these young people often loiter in the grave-yards or other secluded places.
It can be recalled here that last year, church workers in Nagaland had experienced a harrowing time 'exorcising the devils' from the society.
A prominent church leader in Nagaland had commented last year on the purported rising number of Satan worshippers in the state, the alleged distribution of membership forms in the state has even fueled unnerved for many Christians in the state.
Early 2013, Rev.Zotuo Kiewhuo, a senior pastor and founder of Koinonia Baptist Church, Kohima had said that there were around 3000 devil worshipers in the state capital Nagaland alone.
Amid intense speculations, a membership form of a group called "Awakening the Horror" was made available to Newmai News Network by a church pastor in Dimapur as recent as in the first week of July, 2013 .
To be a member of this group, one has to submit the form after necessary descriptions are mentioned in the form along with Rs 20.The form says that the members of "Awakening the Horror" should help each other and fight jointly against anyone who attack any of the members.
Meanwhile, the church pastor who did not want to be identified told NNN that these members of "Awakening the Horror" would meet once a week at a place in Chumukedima in the outskirt of Dimapur just around midnight.
However, NNN attempted hard to ascertain the development but to no avail.
Meanwhile, to thwart the purported rise in the number of Satan worshippers, a 'Transformation crusade' was held last year in April with the theme 'Arise and shine' at Khuochiezie local ground in Kohima.
Churches across Nagaland are also giving special times to pray so that the supposed Satan worhippers are done away.
Also last year in Mizoram sometime in September, one Lalrinmawia of Champhai Kanan Veng of Mizoram who identified himself as a worshiper of Satan and also a swindler, was arrested by Bawngkawn and Vaivakawn police.
The arrest came following the information received from one family living at Bawngkawn regarding the man claiming himself as having healing power through prayer.
But as the man did not mention the name of "Almighty God" during the time of prayer to heal a sick girl and since he demanded Rs 3000 from the girl's family, they became suspicious of the man.
After a report was filed on Bawngkawn police station Lalrinmawia was arrested by the local police when he came back to the family as he had promised earlier.
On being interrogated, Lalrinmawia had said he belonged to Kanan Veng(Village), Champhai and was an ardent and true worshiper of Satan.
He had confessed before the police that once he was a Christian counselor and a true worshiper of the "Almighty God".
While he was working as a counselor he was tempted by the disciple of Satan named 'Belfatas' to follow him.
But as Lalrinmawia declined, the disciple of Satan making himself visible only to Lalrinmawia then started torturing him that compelled the latter to follow Satan.
The disciple of Satan according to Lalrinmawia was such a handsome and well built body guy that none of the males in the world can supersede and overcome him.
He had said that two disciples of Satan namely 'Belfatas' and 'Rainmen' used to appear in flesh.
While Belfatas was active among drugs addicts, Rainmen was active among singers, he had added.
Sources informed that the kind of Satan which Lalrinmawia worshiped was much powerful and mightier than the evil worshiped by majority of Mizo youths.
According to Lalrinmawia, they had a group of follower called 'DARK OF PRINCE' and there are only around 10 members in Mizoram among them includes female worshipers.
They usually worship Satan and practice its cult on first Wednesday of every month.
As he confessed about his satanic cult, he was afraid that the disciple will haunt him.
