Darpan News Desk IANS, 25 Nov, 2014 11:05 AM
    US President Barack Obama has called for peace after a grand jury decided not to indict a Ferguson police officer in Michael Brown shooting death case.
     
    "We are a nation built on the rule of law, and so we need to accept that this decision was the grand jury's to make," Xinhua quoted from a White House statement Monday.
     
    He said anger is an understandable reaction but violence is not the answer.
     
    Michael Brown was shot dead by a policeman Aug 9 this year in Ferguson, Missouri, a suburb of St.Louis.
