NEW DELHI: 'Godman' Rampal’s ungodly secrets are spilling out like an unclogged drain as his once-faithful sadhvis sing before the Haryana Police.



Startling allegations about his sexual habits, and the sources of funding and donations that his ashram received, are coming to the fore during interrogation.



Sources told Mail Today that Rampal preferred ‘hostesses’, whom he called sadhikayaen, inside his private mansion. Of these, only a few were allowed to enter his bedroom as his alleged sexual partners.



Babita Kumari alias Baby, 27, was reportedly his preferred bed mate. Unconfirmed reports said she used to stay in the room of Rampal’s son. The exact nature of her relationship with the Sant’s son is not clear. But this proximity to both father and son gave her power over Rampal in a way other hostesses could not exercise.



Babita is the daughter of Baljit, a Rampal aide, who was arrested on November 20 from the Barwala-based Satlok Ashram.



Sources said Rampal had even made a fixed deposit of Rs 10 lakh in her name. Police sources said Babita acted as Rampal’s henchwoman and knew of all his wrongdoings as well as those of his aides, including her father Baljit.



“We had arrested Rampal’s key aide Baljeet and his daughter Babita. A special team including cyber experts is busy examining her laptop, six mobile phones, 10 hard disks, 17 CDs, three telephone diaries and five files,” Haryana DGP S.N. Vashisht said.



Police sources said Babita was very close to Rampal and knows many of his secrets. She had removed the hard disks from the ashram’s computers and tried to destroy them. Sources also said that Rampal did not allow anybody to enter his room when Babita was with him. They would spend hours together locked inside a closed room.



The police have also recovered a pregnancy kit from Rampal’s room, besides medicines for improving vitality.



CLOSE AIDE



“Yes, she was close to the baba but it is too premature to comment on the relationship between her and Rampal as the matter is under investigation. She was on a three-day police remand which has been extended for three more days. We are investigating all aspects of the case,” Inspector General of Police, Hisar Range, Anil Kumar Rao told Mail Today.



During her interrogation, Babita had reportedly told the police that she has details about all sadhikayaen (hostesses). She has assured the police she will give them the list and get the hostesses arrested.



Sources said the arrest of other sadhikayaen (hostesses) may open a Pandora’s box. Earlier investigations have revealed that Rampal had given a few women access to his private room. There are rumours that these women followers were sexually abused by Rampal’s aides.



Unconfirmed reports also said that some women were found without clothes roaming inside the ashram during a police raid - following Rampal’s arrest on November 20 - and had later alleged exploitation.



The victims, sources said, mostly belonged to Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh.



Rao, however, denied any Rampal follower was found without clothes and said no such complaint about sexual exploitation has been made so far. However, he said the police will take appropriate action if a formal complaint is lodged by any women follower.



“That is not true. We have not received any complaint about physical exploitation. We will take action if a formal complaint about sexual assault is made. I reviewed the case today and have found some followers with criminal record. They belong to other states and have even given wrong identities. We will take them on remand,” Anil Rao said.



Sources told Mail Today that Babita, her father Baljit, and another Rampal aide have made startling revelations about Rampal and his ashram which the police are unwilling to share at the moment.
