Lead Kindly Knife

Newman College Thodupuzha, named after the famed Anglican cardinal John Henry Newman (1801-1890), has been witness to a string of weird incidents for the last four months. In March, a teacher framed a question which obviously hurt the religious sentiments of Muslims. The ensuing rage and waves of protests made the management repeal the question, tender an apology and keep the teacher under suspension. The man absconded and resurfaced recently directly into the hands of the local police.
Now the events have taken an ugly turn. Some yet-to-be-identified hooligans have swooped on him and chopped his right hand off, just like that!! To go by all the indications, the mischief is the handiwork of a gang of extremist Muslims youths who found it impossible to brook insult of their god and prophet. Perhaps they fancied themselves as the warriors of god, entrusted with the mighty task of keeping his name free from profane discourses!!
What does the event portend?
