Deccan Chronicle article brutally assassinates the character of Paramahamsa Nithyananda to paint Him as guilty of a crime, which does not even have a victim. It was a part of smear campaign that involved untrue and humiliating insinuations which were intentional, premeditated efforts to brutally attack His Divine Holiness’ reputation and credibility.
25 April 2010 - In an poisonous defamatory article titled, ‘Swami yet to spill beans’, it makes a number of ungrounded baseless claims mentioning the usage of ‘Sexual Tantric Practices’, ‘Discreet Tantra Sessions’ and ‘Non Disclosure Agreement.’ These words, along with the article headlines are deliberately being used to sensationalize the ongoing attacks to manipulate the public perception that His Divine Holiness is already guilty, but has yet to break His silence.
The article assumes His Divine Holiness as guilty until proven innocent in the following ways:
- Reporting statements such as - “yet to divulge any information on his sexual tantric practices” * stating that the sexual tantric practices are “his” without any verified proof
FACTS: These are complete lies. There is no proof of their claims.
- Reporting that, “officials are yet to ask him about the non-disclosure agreement signed by his select devotees for tantrik experiments” FACTS: * Though the non-disclosure agreement is non-existent and was not signed by His Divine Holiness or any real person. o The two people who claimed that they did sign such an agreement is Vinay Bharadwaj, who is a convicted child rapist and imprisoned in one of the highest security prisons in the United States with the likes of murderers like Ted Bundy.
- String of assaults destabilised His Divine Holiness' mission and His spiritual community as whole.
- These sexually themed attacks declared Him as a Guru who had fallen from disgrace and disqualified Him as spiritual leader.
When media houses that have large readership as Deccan Chronicle carry such a bias, they effectively carry non-erasable programming of people's opinions. Therefore, their 1.45 million readers are programmed to be prejudiced against Humanitarian Spiritual leaders and their followers. This type of stigmatization legitimizes religious discrimination and hate speech against Hindus, and in this case, is used to justify the unlawful arrest of His Divine Holiness, all the while violating the Human Rights Act of No Arbitrary Arrests (article 9).

April 24: Senior officers of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) grilled controversial godman Swamy Nithyananda for the second day on Saturday. It is reliably learnt that he revealed some information to them which needs to be verified.
The officials reportedly asked him questions concerning the ideology on which he has based his teachings but Nithyananda has so far not divulged any information regarding his sexual tantrik practices.
The officials are yet to question him on the non-disclosure agreements signed by his select devotees for the tantrik experiments.
On Friday the godman’s interrogation went on till midnight during which he recounted his story from boyhood to his advent into spiritualism. The CID officials also examined four witnesses, who were staying with him in Himachal Pradesh. Nithyananda remained calm throughout the grilling. He has been lodged in the CID lockup.
The Ramnagaram court had remanded him to police custody for four days. It is likely that the investigating team may take him to his ashram in Kengen for collecting more evidence regarding his 'discreet' tantra sessions.
