Image description

A Brahmin priest, Devi Prashad Acharya, (C), crosses the Bagmati River on an elephant on the outskirts of Kathmandu June 14, 2001 after performing the "katto" rite - reserved for monarchs who have met tragic ends. The elephant chosen to convey Nepal's Crown Prince Dipendra's spirit into exile at first refused to cross the Bagmati river then trumpeted wildly before turning tail and chasing a group of dignitaries up a narrow path. They scattered in panic, leaving a trail of slippers and Nepali caps in their wake. JSG/DL
