KARNATAKA
HIGH COURT DISPOSES OF PETITION AGAINST NITHYANANDA
The Karnataka High Court today disposed of the habeas corpus
petition submitted by the parents of Nithyananda disciple Santhosh, alleging that their son was being illegally detained
in his ashram and not allowed to meet them.
In their habeas corpus petition, Munnur
Krishnamurthy and Jayanthi had submitted that their son Santhosh, a hotel
management graduate, had become a disciple of Nithyananda and was staying at
his ashram in Bidadi near Bangalore since 2009.
Responding to the petition, Santhosh, who has taken the spiritual
name Shantimayananda, denied the allegation that he was not allowed to meet his
parents, as his father Krishnamurthy had
been a frequent visitor to the ashram and was known to many of his fellow
ashramites as well. On several previous occasions, Krishnamurthy had even done some voluntary work for the ashram.
Shantimayananda also affirmed that as a major (he is 34 years
old), he is entitled to choose his own life and future. He has experienced
great healing and transformation after joining Nithyananda ashram, and was keen
to continue his spiritual work and social services while staying in the
organization.
He has also requested the police and court not to entertain any
such complaints or petitions from his family and relatives in future.
