The ‘Abode of Peace’ ashram- the murder victims
Posted by robertpriddy on August 12, 2010
V.J. Ram (aka Janakiram) was a senior Indian CID officer who received the President’s Police Medal for having solved many difficult cases. His book on ‘The Godmen of India’ is extremely revealing, especially as regards the long history of criminal incidents connected to Sathya Sai Baba and his coterie. His sensational book is about several ‘godmen’ in India into whom he has investigated and found to be bogus and surrounded by criminal allegations with much circumstantial evidence to uphold them.

The page is cut off towards the right, making it impossible to read the full content. Anyways, from what I could glean, the author has done a good job of gathering the facts. I had attended the summer course in 1993. All student participants had to wear a badge with their name written on it. Sairam had worne a badge with just the letter “K”. While it was odd, people thought of it as just a playful stunt. The drama that followed a few weeks later changed all that.
