CID officials have said they have more incriminating evidence to prove that Swami Nithyananda indulged in sex with his devotees. Based on this evidence, the CID has filed an additional chargesheet against him.
The first chargesheet was filed on July 25, 2010, in Ramnagaram court. A former disciple, Lenin Karuppan, had recorded a phone conversation with Nithyananda, wherein the latter spoke about his sexual encounters. The CID said a recording of the conversation was sent to the experts, who concluded the voice was indeed Nithyananda’s. Officials said they had a certificate from experts in this regard. Also, forensic science department has come to the conclusion that a confidante of Nithyananda was instrumental in convincing devotees to have sex with him. When the CID raided Nithyananda’s ashram, it found non-disclosure agreements, prohibiting the signatories from disclosing the ‘contents of the spiritual course’. On behalf of Nithyananda’s ashram, a trustee, Jamuna Rani, signed the agreements. She had contended that the signatures were not hers. However, experts at Forensic Science Lab, Hyderabad, studied her signature and concluded that she had signed on the paper. CID DG RK Datta said that based on forensic reports, the CID booked Rani on charges of abetting devotees to have sex with Nithyananda.
The CID has also recorded the complaint of a Mumbai-based man who has stated he was brainwashed to have sex with Nithyananda.
