CHENNAI, JAN.12. Several television channels, notably Sun TV, today showed excerpts from the video recording of the custodial interrogation of the Kanchi Sankaracharya, Sri Jayendra Saraswathi, by the police in November 2004. The Acharya was heard complaining that the junior Sankaracharya, Sri Vijayendra Saraswathi, did not show any concern for him when he was arrested in the Sankararaman murder case. Sri Vijayendra only wanted to make sure that neither he nor his brother would be arrested in the case and that he had failed to show solicitude for his elderly guru, Sri Jayendra Saraswathi said. During the videographed interrogation, the Kanchi Acharya also revealed that he had knowledge of and agonised over the letters written by Sankararaman against him. The Acharya said he had only spoken of his anguish at the letters written by Sankararaman and that he had not asked that Sankararaman be beaten, stabbed or slashed. Even for this, there was a "reaction." Sun TV, which telecast a 10-minute clip, announced that a compact disc was delivered at its office on Wednesday afternoon. Although the channel wrote to the Director-General of Police and the City Police Commissioner about the compact disc and enquired whether it could be telecast, no objection was received.
