Ram Rahim’s bail plea rejected

CHANDIGARH: Panchkula CBI court has rejected the bail application of self-styled godman Gurmeet Ram Rahim, who is serving a 20 year jail term in two rape cases. The plea was filed in connection with another case involving castration of 400 of his followers. It was dismissed three days after he had moved the court for it. The Panchkula court had recently framed charges of cheating, criminal intimidation and the one for causing grievous hurt by dangerous weapons against Gurmeet. He has also been charged with criminal conspiracy along with two doctors, Pankaj Garg and MP Singh, allegedly involved in castration of nearly 400 of the sect followers.
