Churchgoers sprayed with insecticide

 SIX worshippers in a church at Couva were taken to hospital on Sunday night, after angry neighbours sprayed the congregation with an insecticide, trying to silence their songs of praise.

Two brothers who police said used a mist blower to pump a mixture of Gramaxone and Lanate on churchgoers at the Endurance Ministries Church, will appear in court today.

They are charged with the spraying of a noxious substance.

The attack happened at nightfall during the Sunday night service at the home of member Julie Logan.

For several weeks, neighbours were said to have tried stopping the service because of the "holy noise".

On Sunday evening, after cursing and threats, a family allegedly sprayed the poison over a wall.

The congregation of 40 people, including Pastor Ishmael Khan, ran to the road.

Several reportedly fainted.

Six ambulances were called to the area.

Six people were treated at the Couva District Hospital.

They were discharged early yesterday

Religion
Many different religions are present in Trinidad and Tobago. The largest two are the Roman Catholics (26%) and Hindus (22%); the Anglicans (8%), Muslims (6%), Seventh-day Adventist (4%) and Presbyterians. Methodist are among the smaller faiths. Two Afro-Caribbean syncretic faiths, the Shouter or Spiritual Baptists and the Orisha faith (formerly called Shangos, a less than complimentary term) are among the fastest growing religious groups, as are a host of American-style evangelical and fundamentalist churches usually lumped as "Pentecostal" by most Trinidadians (although this designation is often inaccurate). The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has also expanded its presence in the country since the mid-1980s.
