JOIN USA local court today extended the police remand of self-styled godman Rampal, who has been slapped with cases of sedition and murder among others, by seven days.

Rampal has been slapped with cases of sedition, murder, attempt to murder, waging war against the state government, rioting, illegal detention and others. Violent clashes between followers of Rampal and police led to death of five women and an infant and left over 200 people injured including some policemen.
