This was brought to the attention of the international gurukula headmasters in

(?) 1988. At that time there was a decision on the part of some GBC/sannyasis

whose names I won't mention here not to inform the non-ISKCON project about

these people's pasts. Tosan Krsna was outraged and there was a big snafu in

the meeting.

Is there something our managers in India can do, even if the CPO is helpless?

It is not fair to all those children....
