IRO president on child’s beheading: It's hell on Earth
“We are in hell on Earth.”
That was the response from Inter-Religious Organisation president, Pundit Lloyd Mukram Sirjoo, yesterday when asked about the death of four-year-old Amarah Lallite, who was beheaded by a 39-year-old man now in police custody.During an interview with Guardian Media, Pundit Sirjoo said the incident sent shock waves throughout the country.
“What would cause that to happen? Around the world, we see genocide and wars taking place, but across the world so much is happening, and when it reaches home where a little child is affected, it shows our society is really lacking spirituality.”
As he referenced the tragedy, he contended that given the spate of crime and violence, which he said continues unabated, citizens needed to strengthen their fate.
“This couple, they would have had their differences, and people cannot pull apart or leave, and that situation where the little child has to face the consequences of their mishandling of their own problems, we need more spirituality, and individuals need to uplift their own spirituality and create a momentum of positivity.”
As he lamented the crime scourge, the IRO president maintained that law enforcement authorities needed to continue their fight.
