Chandigarh: Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh's troubles seem to be unending.
Last month, the self-styled godman was convicted and then sentenced to 20-year imprisonment for raping two of his female disciples at the ashram.
Now, a former Dera member has claimed that Gurmeet had also been abusing several minor girls who were students at a school run by the Dera.
The new allegations have been made by Gurdas Singh Tood, who was once part of the Dera. He ended up testifying against Ram Rahim in the court during the trial.
Speaking to India Today, Singh said the court that he is in touch with 10 women, most of them married now, were raped by Gurmeet when they were a student at the Dera.
Singh also claimed that the hospital at the Dera used to terminate the pregnancies of girls who had been raped by Gurmeet Singh.
The charge-sheet filed by CBI also mentioned at least six other women who were sexually exploited by Gurmeet.
As per another report, Gurmeet even used to make the girls staying at the Dera perform 'mujra' (a dance performed by courtesans in a format that emerged during the Mughal era in India) in his 'gufa'.
