Crime Branch to probe Rape Complaint against Self-styled Godman
The Crime Branch of Delhi Police will take over the probe into the complaint of a 25-year-old woman that she was raped by a self-styled godman and his disciples on several occasions, the police said on Tuesday.
New Delhi: The Crime Branch of Delhi Police will take over the probe into the complaint of a 25-year-old woman that she was raped by a self-styled godman and his disciples on several occasions, the police said on Tuesday.
The woman filed a complaint against Daati Maharaj, a self-styled godman, at the Fatehpur Beri Police Station in south Delhi on Sunday. The case was transferred from the district police to the Crime Branch on Tuesday, they added.
Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Alok Kumar confirmed that the case had been transferred even though they were yet to receive the official orders.
The woman had told police that she was a disciple of the self-styled godman for a decade, but after she was raped by him and two of his disciples, she returned to her native place in Rajasthan.
She also alleged that a female disciple of the godman would force her into his room and if she refused, would tell her that other disciples too slept with him, the police said.
The woman also alleged that she was sexually abused in the ashrams of the godman in Delhi and Rajasthan and named two male disciples of Daati Maharaj.
She fled from one of the ashrams two years ago and had gone into depression.
