Agra, April 24 (IANS): The Christian community in Agra has demanded a fair probe into last week's vandalisation of a church here, even as police claimed that a jilted lover was behind the incident.

But when she did not respond to his advances, he lost his cool and damaged church property.

The priests and the leaders of the Christian community here have, however, dismissed police claims.
