ALUVA: As many as 150 Jacobites including Catholicos Aboon Mor Baselios Thomas-I, the spiritual head of the Syrian Christians of India, were on Saturday arrested and removed by the police after they broke open the locked Aluva Thrikkunanthu Seminary church and conducted mass inside the church. Police have been camping in surrounding areas as the situation is tense here. The incident happened at 4 in the morning.
For about 4 decades the church had remained locked following spar between Jacobite- orthodox church groups.
