Barwala, Nov 23: The Haryana police on Sunday took the arrested self-styled godman Rampal back to his Satlok ashram here as a part of investigation into the recent Hisar violence. Rampal, who was taken into the police custody last Wednesday after a stand-off of nearly 10 days and violent clashes between his supporters and security forces, is currently in police custody following court orders. This is the first time that the sect leader was brought back to his 12-acre Ashram complex near this town in Hisar district, 210 km from Chandigarh, after his arrest. Police officials here said that Rampal was brought here to help the special investigation team (SIT), which is searching his ashram complex since Thursday, uncover the secrets of the complex, including huge lockers kept there. |
