Supreme Court: Swami Nithyananda has to undergo potency test
- 5 years ago
Controversial self-proclaimed godman Nithyananda will have to undergo potency test in a 2010 rape case with the Supreme Court on Wednesday dismissing his plea challenging the Karnataka High Court's order directing him to take the medical test.
A bench headed by Justice Ranjana Prakash Desai refused to give any relief to Nithyananda.
The bench while hearing the case had on August 20 questioned the controversial godman for his reluctance to undergo the test, saying such examinations are becoming necessary day-by-day in view of rise in rape cases.
The bench had also said that there is no reason why an accused in a rape case should not be subjected to potency test and had questioned the police for delay in conducting the test in the 2010 case.
The apex court had on August 21 reserved its verdict on Nithyananda's plea.
