After Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim’s conviction in rape cases, another controversial guru Radhe Maa may be in trouble soon. The Punjab and Haryana High Court today pulled up Punjab police for not acting against a complaint on her.

Phagwara resident Surender Mittal had complained to the court that Kapurthala police station is not filing an FIR against Radhe Maa.

During the hearing of this case, the court asked the police why they have not filed an FIR in the case so far against Radhe Maa.

Mittal has alleged that Radhe Maa has been threatening her over the phone with dire consequences asking him not to speak against her.

Punjab police has been asked to reply to the High Court within November 13 why a criminal case was not filed against Radhe Maa in the police station.

Radhe Ma has faced several controversies in the past too.

In 2015, a woman had named Radhe Maa in a dowry harassment case. She accused the godwoman of inciting her in-laws to demand more dowry, and of forcing her to work at the ashram, where she was reportedly assaulted.

Actress Dolly Bindra had also filed a criminal case of threatening and sexual harassment against Radhe Ma.

A few days later, videos of Radhe Maa’s devotees carrying her around during satsangs went viral. Activist lawyer Falguni Brahmbhatt lodged a police complaint against her for obscenity, running a business disguised as religion, fraud and cheating.
