Sansani: Shocking story of Asaram and his son Narayan Sai

Narayan Sai, son of self-styled godman Asaram, was on Tuesday awarded life imprisonment by a sessions court here in a rape case. A penalty of Rs 1 lakh was also imposed on him which if he fails to pay would lead to extension of his jail-term by one more year. Besides Sai (47), who is lodged at Lajpore Jail here since 2013, the court had held four of his aides, including two women, guilty of various offences. Sai was convicted under IPC sections 376 (rape), 377 (unnatural offences), 323 (assault), 506-2 (criminal intimidation) and 120-B (conspiracy). Of the 11 accused, six were acquitted.
