Extremists have imposed a tax of 25 thousand CFA Francs ( around 40 dollars ) on all Christians over the age of 18 in Douna-Pen , the largest Christian village in the east of Koro , Mopti .

Those who were unable to pay were warned that the alternative would be the forced closure of their places of worship.

Residents fear that the practice could spread to other villages, further threatening religious freedom.
