Hindu Gods Get Served

To settle a property dispute, Indian judge Sunil Kumar Singh has issued summons to the Hindu gods Ram and Hanuman (pictured) to appear in court. Manmohan Pathak, a Hindu priest, claims the land upon which two temples devoted to the gods are built belongs to him, but the local villagers insist it actually belongs to the gods themselves. Judge Singh decided the only way to settle the dispute is to have the gods speak for themselves in court, but they did not respond to a summons sent in the mail. The summons have since been printed in the local newspapers, though no one knows whether Ram or Hanuman are any kind of newshounds. More details here.
