New twist to Nityananda sex scandal

Police clueless on godmans former associates whereabouts

Refusing to be coaxed by the Swamiji’s alleged bid to convince him not to take his police complaint to its logical conclusion, Lenin reportedly told a Tamil bi-weekly “Nakkeeran” that he was “determined” to continue the exposes about the Swamiji.

The magazine in its latest edition has put out what it claims to be the purported latest audio-recorded conversation between Swami Nithyananda and his former disciple Lenin, after the godman’s recent revelations in a television interview that the sensational tapes were a “distortion and extrapolation” as part of a larger conspiracy to “frame him”.

Meanwhile, the police here maintained that they have no knowledge where Lenin was staying in the city, though the latter is believed to be staying with a friend.

Lenin apparently is in touch with only one correspondent of the Tamil magazine, which is now virtually running a Swami Nithyananda “serial”, publishing more photographs from the alleged CD.

Even on Wednesday, when an anticipatory bail plea of one Dr Chandran, a homeopathic doctor of Namakkal and a disciple of Swami Nithyananda, had come up in the Madras High Court, the police, through the state’s counsel, took the view that the cases against the Swamiji had been transferred to Karnataka, implying apprehensions of arrest by Dr Chandran was uncalled for. Hence the anticipatory bail plea was dismissed.
