Sridhar Swami's comments on aatataayis (aggressors)

agnido garadashchaiva shastrapANir dhanApahaH.

xetra dArA harashchaiva shhaDete hi AtatAyinaH.. dharmashAstra

 

## An arsonist, one who kills other by poison, one who attacks on weapon-less with a weapon, one who steals another's riches, one who takes away another' wife, or occupies another's farm land; these six are called aatataayis. - dharmashAstra ##

The Personality of Godhead Sri Krishna said: A friend of a brahmana is not to be killed, but if he is an aggressor (aatataayi), he must be killed. All these rulings are in the scriptures, and you should act accordingly. - SMB 1-7-53 ##
