Several weeks have passed since the sex tapes involving Swami Nityananda surfaced but the Bangalore police is still clueless on his whereabouts.
The cops have now decided to approach the general public for information on the disgraced swami.
Yogappa, Superintendent of Police, CID (special
enquiries), in a release, has appealed to people who have either been victimised or have any information about the sex swami to appear before the CID.
He has promised to keep the identity of the informants confidential and also assured them that they would be paid travelling expenses.
"We are getting calls from Madurai, Shimoga, Hubli and Dharwad. Though people claim to have information about Nityananda, no one has testified as yet."
He added, "We are specially concentrating on Tamil Nadu, which is believed to be Nityananda's area of operation. We have advertised through various media and have sought the help of local news channels in the state to trace the swami."
Meanwhile, sources claim that CID officials do not have any information on the swami beyond a copy of the complaint that was filed against him. CID officials are said to be desperate for information on him.
However, Yogappa refused to comment on the issue. "We cannot divulge details regarding the ongoing investigations. We'll submit our report in the High Court as we have been directed to," he said.
