Editorial comments: Time and place of issue unknown. It is also unclear whether MT spoke to the press in person or issued a written statement. The Daily Telegraph (7 July 1978) has: "He was never afraid to speak out on great issues, particularly his stand on human rights. This is a grievous loss of a great religious leader". BBC Radio News Report 2200 6 July 1978 adds that MT said that Christians the world over would be saddened at the news.
