Pope Francis is asked for 'forgiveness' by Interim President of the Central African Republic, for the country's 'descent into hell' following sectarian violence when the pair met yesterday

The Pope ventured into one of the world's most dangerous neighbourhoods  to beg Christians and Muslims to end the three year clashes between Christians and Muslims in Central African Republic over the past three years. Under intense security, Francis passed through a no-man's zone to enter PK5, a district where most Muslims who have not fled the capital of the Central African Republic have now sought refuge.
