A former key aide of Nithyananda today alleged the self-styled godman was threatening witnesses, including him, and victims of his "sleaze activities".
"He has already threatened me before. He makes his devotees file cases against me. Now he is harassing witnesses and victims by filing complaints against them," Lenin Karuppan, who released purported videos of Nithyananda in a compromising position with an actress, said.
Nithyananda, against whom CID have recently filed a chargesheet for crimes such as rape and unnatural sex, was also "intimidating probable witnesses and victims by threatening to file cases against them", Lenin claimed.
Lenin, who had deposed against Nityananda before the police, alleged that many ex-devotees had realised the "truth about Nithyananda and left him after the scandal. Many have thanked me and personally supported me, but because of Nithyananda's continuing threats and pressure they are afraid to come out openly and testify".
Lenin accused the self-styled godman of spreading "false propaganda and misinformation" that he was being funded by some Christian groups and television channels to do sting operations.
He claimed he had an audio recording of Nityananda "begging him to return to his ashram and not to report anything to the authorities".
Lenin also charged Nithyananda with collecting huge tax free money for his non-profit foundation (Dyanapeetam) and investing it in hedge funds and companies.
The former disciple said he was not exposing Nityananda for any "personal gain" but only to save others from being "trapped in the dangerous cult".
Nithyananda was arrested from Himachal Pradesh after TV channels telecast visuals showing him in a compromising position with an actress.

Om Namah Shivaya,
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, this is the nature of Nithyananda and his criminal organization. If it were just Nithyananda, then this wicked situation would be confined or at least isolated. Unfortunately, Nithyananda has a whole legion of truly ugly and nasty followers to do his bidding for him. Probably the worst of these (out of a very long list) would be Bhaktananda. This is a truly wretched human being. I fear for the type of birth he will get in the next life after... if he gets any birth at all.
Thanks to Dharmananda and a few others who would probably rather stay out of the lime light, it is proven that light still conquers viciousness. Bravery in terms of standing up for the Truth will always, eventually, slice down whatever ugliness that can be mustered for such low existing creatures as Nithyananda and Bhaktananda. Soon these two criminals will be in jail, and they can contemplate their ugly actions. They will get a second chance to contemplate their true nature and missed opportunities to be on the side of dharma sooner than they realize. May a gentle prayer help guide them back on the right path. That might be all they need (or will get).
Jai Maa.
