Sankarcharya facing murder charges

i am simply baffled! the constitution says Nepal is a Hindu kingdom, and yet i believe nobody in sajha has yet posted anything on one of the sankarcharyas, Kanchi Sankaracharya, a Hindu religious guru [with close ties to our royal family], who was recently charged with murder of his former aide in India, and who has been been held in a prison in Tamil Nadu since Nov 11. how did one of the prime leaders of the Hindus with strong links to the Hindu base and charities in Nepal and the world over get in this mess? He is also being charged with trying to "flee to Nepal" after the murder, something the accused lawyer has countered. whatever the future verdict, this has already sent a shockwave through the Hindu world - especially among the more fundamentalist groups such as Shiva Sena, Hindu Vishwa sansthan, Hindu Jagaran Manch, etc etc. -karmapa
