The five-year-old sensational case involving the bobbitisation of a self-styled godman in the capital city has taken a new twist with the complainant and her alleged partner suspected of having orchestrated the incident and framing the former.
The State Police Crime Branch has unravelled the conspiracy in which Swami Gangeshananda Theerthapada had been accused of rape and arrested by the Pettah police on May 19, 2017. The complainant, a law student, was believed to have chopped off his genitals when the accused had made sexual advances towards her. She had then accused the godman of having subjected her to sexual abuse since her childhood.
The investigators have now concluded that the case was a concocted one and that the complainant and his ‘disciple’ Ayyapadas with whom she was in a relationship had plotted the crime to avenge his role in her family’s refusal to solemnise their marriage.
