(<http://www.catholicnewsagency.com>CNA).- Three priests have been
killed in Africa during the last week, according to Fr. Chris
Townsend spokesman for the South African Bishops. Father Lionel Sham
was killed on March 7, Father Daniel Matsela Mahula on February 27,
both in South Africa; and Father Revocat Gahimbare was slain on March
8, in Burundi.
News of the deaths came from Father Chris Townsend, spokesman of the
Bishops Conference of South Africa. Father Lionel Sham, 66, was
killed after being kidnapped, while Father Matsela, 34, was
intercepted by four gang members while he was driving his car. He was
ordained on December 22, 2002.
Father Gahimbare was pastor of the Parish of Karuzi. His assailants

sisters' aid. He was shot and killed by the assailants.
