Asaram supporters protest in Delhi
Asaram had come under sharp criticism early this year after he made controversial remarks about the December 16 gangrape case when he said that the girl would have escaped the ordeal had he called her attacker brothers and pleaded them for mercy.
A spokesperson of Asaram Bapu's Ashram rubbished the charges.
The teenage girl along with her parents went to Kamla Market police station on Tuesday and gave a written complaint against the 74-year-old self-styled godman of sexually assaulting her.
The controversial spiritual guru had earlier been in the news when two children living in his ashram in Gujarat had gone missing and are suspected to have been killed.
The supporters of Asaram Bapu on Friday gathered in New Delhi’s Connaught Place to protest against the case lodged against the spiritual guru on the complaint of a 16-year-old girl that he had sexually assaulted her in a Jodhpur Ashram recently.
