Punjab and Haryana High Court Deals Setback to Dera Sacha Sauda Chief Ram Rahim
The Punjab and Haryana High Court has delivered a significant blow to Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim, who is currently serving a prison sentence in Rohtak’s Sunaria Jail. The court has ruled that the case against him, involving the alleged castration of followers under the pretext of spiritual salvation, will once again proceed in the CBI Special Court.
In a recent hearing, the High Court overturned the CBI Special Court’s earlier decision to hand over the case diary to Ram Rahim. This marks a pivotal moment in the controversial case that accuses the Dera chief of orchestrating the forced castration of male followers as part of a so-called path to meet God.
The High Court has directed the matter back to the CBI Special Court, ordering a fresh decision in the case. This development is expected to increase legal troubles for Ram Rahim, who has been embroiled in multiple criminal cases over the years.
The allegations of forced castration within the Dera Sacha Sauda have long been a point of contention, with former followers accusing the organization of exploiting their faith. This latest ruling reinforces the judiciary’s commitment to ensuring accountability in such serious allegations.
As the case proceeds, all eyes will be on the CBI Special Court’s new hearing, which could have far-reaching implications for Ram Rahim and his followers.
