Basic Human Rights
Bangalore Mirror mockingly reports His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda's need to be hospitalized. A disguised story by media in an erroneous mocking, and degrading manner to incite public hatred among masses. The prolonged opposition forced on Him, exposes the officially sanctioned incitement of hatred against Him, to desensitize the masses about the inhuman torture the State Police gave in the prison.
On 28th April 2010, Bangalore Mirror published an article on the incident of His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda being hospitalized after various police atrocities were made to keep him unlawfully imprisoned. It was a case of Intolerance and overt discrimination of His Divine Holiness as a spiritual leader of a minority group. A thinly veiled attempt to deflect the violent atrocity on His Divine Holiness in prison. It clearly exposes the flood of hate propaganda of media.
FACTS: The inhumane circumstances suppressed by the media led to a number of serious and dangerous health concerns for His Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda. The merciless environment led to severe chest pains for Him, to the point where He had no choice but to be hospitalized while under the illegal custody.
- FALSE CLAIM: They make a statement - "the swami's hopes of staying in the hospital.." FACT: This is a completely cooked up false story.
- FALSE CLAIM: The article claims that after a private talk with his lawyer, Paramahamsa Nithyananda complained of chest pain - making it seem as though it was a clever ruse planned by His lawyer and Him. FACT: It was a medical condition that needed to be addressed. There was no motive otherwise.
His Divine Holiness has been denied of a number of basic human rights as per the Human Rights Acts including the Right to Justice (Article 8, 10), no Arbitrary Arrests (Article 9) and Right to Life & Security.

Inhuman Torture in illegal custody - CCTV Video Leaked Deviously from Police, Supplied to Media to Incite Hatred
In 2010, His Divine Holiness was illegally arrested after a fabricated obscene video was released. The intention was to assassinate His character generating consistent and high volume of media atrocity material to incite public hatred against Him - to justify silently assassinating Him during custody. His Divine Holiness underwent third degree torture at the hand of Karnataka State Police to force a false confession. The entire episode was captured by CCTV cameras and a part of the footage was purposefully, deviously leaked in the media.
The MEDIA-POLICE NEXUS Conspiracy
- His Divine Holiness was illegally arrested with one and only one purpose - to assassinate Him.
- A direct assassination at the hand of the Police would have had a serious social-political-legal backlash. It would make His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda "a hero" even in the eyes of the most well programmed enemy, His worst critics. The Police-Media nexus of conspirators could not take that risk. They needed a Silent Assassination of His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda, along with programmed public hatred and persecution on Him. Following were the methods:
| Assassination Method | Justification / Cover up Media story |
|---|---|
| Mob lynching in crowded place Take His Divine Holiness in a public place where a huge crowd (with assassins implanted amongst them) gathers around Him. One of those assassins would actually kill Him and vanish into the anonymity provided by the huge crowd. | Character Assassination The murder by a specially appointed assassin would be presented as a case of lynching by a furious upset mob. A mob composed of devotees who were hurt. Then Police and conspirators would put the blame on a chosen scapegoat (who could be devotee). The mob which was |
| made of conspirator's own people would naturally give a statement putting blame on the scapegoat and wipe their hands completely off the incidence. That scapegoat might fight a legal battle lasting for two or three decades while the society completely forgets this incidence. | |
|---|---|
| Torture leading to suicide The police tortured His Divine Holiness in following ways (1) no food, no water for eight days (2) use of shrill scratching loud sounds of tile cutting machine running continuously for more than 8 hours (3) use of ice and cold water to wet the floor where he sleeps (4) use of poisonous food with excessive salt and giving water if and only if He agreed on false confession. However much to their dismay His Divine Holiness endured a week without food and water (5) use of heavy strobe lights which fluctuated and are known to cause neurological and psychological breakdown and epileptic fits. Most techniques used did not involve direct physical involvement because they leave evidence on the victim which can even be shown in the court of law, for example marks of being beaten on skin. | False confession and suicide The police would justify and cover the entire happening by claiming that His Divine Holiness confessed and acknowledged to all allegations and eventually committed suicide owning to the guilt. It is to engineer this false confession that the CID leaked as part of the interrogation tapes and Times Now and other News channels aired the audioless tape on which they placed their own subtitles which were “falsely presented as a confession of crime.” |
| Poisoning The police poisoned using two methods - food and air. His Divine Holiness saw a rat eating the food and dying which was sufficient for Him to know that He needed to avoid that food. Second method they used was poisonous dust to cause asphyxiation. His Divine Holiness was left helpless to cover His mouth and wait for the next day to come, not knowing if He would be able to come out or the torture would continue for many many days. | Guilt leading to suicide The police-media planned a cover up story. The took away His Divine Holiness’ rudraksha mala (worship rosary beads) which was extremely sacred to Him. The rudraksha rosary beads were given to Him by His masters. He carried it throughout His days of spiritual wandering days when He begged and lived. The police snatched away the sacred mala and claimed that His Divine Holiness was trying to use it for committing suicide. They knew that His Divine Holiness would go to any extent including pleading in the court of law for the mala. This action they would use to claim that His Divine Holiness was trying to commit suicide and inspite of they trying to save Him, He wanted to die to save Himself from the guilt of having committed the crimes. This was CID's cunning plans to kill Him and show it as a suicide. |
| Encounter The two encounter methods the police employed for assassination was, claiming that the victim (of encounter) was actually attacking a policeman or another prisoner and in self-defence the other killed him (the victim of encounter). The police gave the threat of encounter to His Divine Holiness several times during illegal arrest period. Over the course of 8 days, the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) threatened His Divine Holiness three to four times of using the “encounter” method on Him. | Self defence It would be claimed that the other person (could be a policeman or another prisoner with whom the police would barter an easy bail) killed His Divine Holiness in self defence. Please visit this page for the list of encounter killing by police in India - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encounter_killings_by_police#In_India |
| Injecting Chemicals The police planned on using narco injections to inject neurotoxins and other chemicals are injected in the body and the person is connected to a polygraph machine and interrogated. Continuous usage of such narco chemicals are known to cause a permanent damage in the cognitive functioning of the victim. These tests are banned by the Supreme Court of India and also by UN Human Rights Council. These tests are not even attempted on terrorists because of fear of violating Human Rights. The injections of sodium pentothal were planned to be mixed with other lethal weapons truth. | Natural death The plan was to attribute the death to asthma or heart attack.

3. As already explained above it is for use in “False confession and suicide” assassination justification strategy that this false news was published. Times Now and other news channels used their massive public outreach to implant the idea into the minds of millions that the His Divine Holiness had confessed - which was not true! It was a justification for the planned assassination which was to follow.
The Contents of the false confession video tape leaked by manipulating clips of the interrogation video: Following are the several media coverages about the CID leaked videos of the Illegal Custody and the interrogation of His Divine Holiness, which was deliberately shown on mainstream media.


Fake news report from Times Now: intrusion on privacy and breach of a fair trial by the State Police
[Times Now video clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VF2OCiDicY]
| # | Time Stamp | Video Narration of Times Now | Truth |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 00:00,030 | Times Now has accessed exclusively the | It is true that Times now got the footage. But they did not mention what Times Now had done was criminal and against law. Like various section of Evidence Act 1892, Section 204 - destruction of evidence etc. Because of Times Now and others the footage where torture of His Holiness was attempted has been edited and the audio is absent. |

| 4 | 00:07,560 | the tainted Swami accused of | Times Now lied. Times Now suppressed |
| being | the fact that there was no witness, evidence, or complainant. Where is the question of crime and taint? | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | 00:09,809 | involved in a sex scandal. | Times Now pre-programmed the viewer to see the preceding part of the video as a confession. Whereas if we actually see the content, it is just allegations made by Times Now, there is no confession anywhere in the video, even if whatever Times Now is saying is believed completely. This shows the capacity of Times Now to lie and spread it virally. |
| 7 | 00:14,780 | The first confession is a question which | The video has no audio!!! How in the world did Times Now claims to know what was being asked? The audio was actually removed. Times Now colluded with CID and placed their own story and narration to justify police encounter during imprisonment of His Divine Holiness. |
| 8 | 00:18,000 | the CID asks him. They ask him, whether it | |
| 9 | 00:20,340 | is him in the video. | |
| 10 | 00:22,590 | Nithyananda answers saying that, "I know that the | Utter lies! This is something the channel just cooked up to Character Assassinate His Divine Holiness. |
| 11 | 00:24,990 | woman is an actress. I can't recognize | It should be recalled that Times Now is the same channel which earlier morphed and skewed the facial dimensions of His Divine Holiness in an interview to project him in bad criminal light. Further they edited His video and showed it as a confession. This is the second time when Times Now is engaged in video tampering for creating false evidence. (in violation of Section 191 & 192 of Indian Penal Code - creation of false evidence). It shows it was never a mistake but their vested interest in |

| 13 | 00:29,099 | at that time. I don't remember anything. |
| assassination of His Divine Holiness. | |||
| 14 | 00:31,470 | The second confession and the second | What the channel is saying here is completely cooked up. There is allegedly a question which CID is asking. And Times Now is alleging an answer was given. Even if taken on face value, there is no substance of any kind of "confession" material coming out of this. This is an example of programmed confusion strategy used by the media for it's justification propaganda. Their only purpose is to exterminate His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda and his disciples. |
| 15 | 00:33,840 | question by the CID is on money | |
| 16 | 00:36,090 | laundering charges asking, "Why are the idols | |
| 17 | 00:38,579 | made here and sold with American invoices?" | |
| 18 | 00:40,710 | In his reply Nithyananda says, "It was | The contents are cooked up by Times Now. It is ridiculous to believe how the channel can publish so many lies for a video with audio. Even if the content is taken on the face value, there is no substance of any confession material of any expose coming out. The only expose is that the video has no audio and channel is running it's own narration. |
| 19 | 00:43,350 | all made here and sold there. The money | |
| 20 | 00:45,510 | directly goes to the trust. And there is | |
| 21 | 00:47,190 | no money laundering." The CID also | The video has no audio and channel is running it's own narration. One of the conspirators, Douglas Mackellar had created fake documents and tried to file a false lawsuit in the US, on His Divine Holiness. However the fake documents were so badly faked that not only the police did not ever register a case, the FBI warned him not to ever come back. At this point the channel is trying to leverage on Douglas' false claims. |
| 22 | 00:49,410 | quizzes him on the thirty | |
| 23 | 00:50,940 | nine crore rupees which is in the trust. | |

| 25 | 00:56,309 | And this is the crucial | Times Now continued to use the fact that they had conveniently provided the |
| 26 | 00:59,219 | confession in fact. Remember this video tape | viewer with a video which had no audio. They uttered some atrocious lies to |
