Nithya exports idols illegally: Lenin
Former follower of Nithyananda, Lenin Karuppan, who shook the godman’s spiritual empire by releasing CDs containing alleged sex acts of the swami with an actress, has come out with a fresh set of allegations.
He told the media on Saturday Nithyananda is involved in illegal export of ancient idols made out of pancha loha which are sold for crores of rupees in the international market. But the authorities, who have been informed about such illegal activities, are not taking any action. Mr Karuppan said he was facing a threat to his life after exposing Nithynananda’s immoral activities. “Thirteen cases have been registered against me across the country. I am facing a threat and I have informed the TN government about it.”
He said the Forensic Sciences Laboratory has confirmed that the CD he released is genuine. The CD’s contents were disputed by Nithyananda, saying it contained morphed images. “Hundreds of devotees of Nithyananda are mute spectators to his illegal and immoral activities. I quit my business which was earning me Rs 50 lakh per month and sought peace at the Nithyananda Ashram. Later I was disillusioned and wanted to expose Nithyananda as he is not a saint,” he said.
He urged Nithyananda to undergo tests to prove his claim that he has the body of a five-year-old boy. “He is not ready for any tests. This proves that he is lying,” he said. “I am a Hindu, but Nithyananda has been misleading the media, saying I am a Christian. After joining his ashram, Nithya renamed me as Shri Nithya Dharmananda,” he said.
