The High Court on Wednesday stayed the investigation against the self-styled godman, Nithyananda’s former disciple Arathi Rao following a petition filed by her to quash the complaint against her and sought the interim stay of the investigation.
Ranjitha and some other followers of Nithyananda had filed a complaint alleging that Arathi had morphed a sleaze CD purportedly showing the actress and the godman in a compromising position and had extorted over Rs 25 lakh from her. A case of criminal intimidation, blackmail and extortion had been registered against Arathi Rao in this regard.
Arathi is the second accused in the case in which Lenin, Nityananda’s former driver is the prime accused. Hearing the petition, Justice Nagamohan Das stayed the investigation and directed the police to file objections and adjourned the case for further hearing.
