“Thus being advised by the demonic ministers, Kamsa, who was from the very beginning the greatest rascal, decided to persecute the brahmanas and Vaishnavas, being entrapped by the shackles of all-devouring, eternal time. He ordered the demons to harass all kinds of saintly persons, and then he entered his house.” (Krishna, The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vol 1, Ch 4)
