They were accused of leading a religious movement without official permission, according to Human Rights Watch for Lao Religious Freedom (HRWLRF).<\/p>\n<p>The five Christians from the Palansai district attended a church service in the nearby village of Boukham.  They are three women: Alee from Phosai village, Poon from Pone village, Narm from Natoo village, and two men: Phosee and Viengsai, both from Phosai village. They have previously attended several church services in Boukham without interference from the authorities. The members of the church in Boukham meet in a private home like most other Christians in other villages.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities are strongly opposed to small groups meeting outside Laos' government-approved evangelical church, but many Christians prefer to meet in house churches due to the strict controls on the activities of the approved church. \"This is normal for Laos now,\" a pastor from the capital Vientiane told Compass Direct News on condition of anonymity. \"In Vientiane, we can see that things are starting to loosen up a bit. But the law is fluid. Circumstances can change from day to day and the situation is still very difficult in the different provinces.\"<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: Compass Direct News<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The situation for Christians in Laos is still very fragile.
