Haryana: Another jailed 'godman' Rampal to face court verdict today
Rampal was arrested after tense standoff between some of his supporters and the police when close to 15,000 of his followers were evacuated from the sprawling premises in 2014.
A Hisar court on Tuesday will pronounce the verdict against self-styled godman Rampal, who is accused of conspiracy in an 11-year-old case, in which his followers opened fire on villagers in Rohtak, killing one person and injuring several others.
The verdict, which was to be pronounced by Judicial Magistrate Hisar Mukesh Kumar on August 25 was postponed to Tuesday, August 29.
On November 17, 2014, a case was registered against Rampal and his followers under IPC sections 186 (Obstructing public servant in discharge of his public function), 332 (Voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servant from his duty) and 353 (Assault or use of criminal force to deter a public servant from discharging his duty).
Another case was registered against Rampal and his followers -- Purshotam Dass, Raj Kumar, Mohinder Singh, Rajender Singh, Rahul and 30-40 other persons -- on November 18, 2014 on a complaint of Sukhdev Singh of Ratia (Fatehabad) under IPC sections 147 (Rioting), 149 (Unlawful assembly, every other member of such assembly shall be guilty of the offence), 188 (disobedient to an order lawfully promulgated by a public servant) and 342 (Wrongfully confining any person).
