BANGALORE, INDIA, December 2, 2004: Tibetan spiritual leader Dalai Lama Thursday said while the arrest of Hindu seer Jayendra Saraswathi in a murder case was unfortunate, the law should take its own course. “Though we are very sad to know about the seer’s arrest, I am of the view the law should take its own course in this matter,” the Dalai Lama, here for a function organized by the Rotary Bangalore Middletown, told reporters. Delivering an address on “Universal Brotherhood”, the Buddhist leader said India had a good democratic system and an independent judiciary. “I am confident that the rule of law will prevail even in the seer’s case,” he added.
