PUNE: World Cup fans and players should scream for 10 minutes at the start of this month’s matches to save Italy from hooliganism, the doctor of the late guru Bhagwan Rajneesh said.

“Let everyone at the opening games close their eyes and then scream and shout, without touching each other, for 10 minutes to release all their pent up violence,” British doctor Swami Amrito said in a statement issued by Rajneesh’s commune,

“The players should also take part in this dynamic meditation (to) encourage some poetry and grace in their play.

“Armed confrontation is only going to escalate this problem,” Amrito advised Italian police.
