Dera Sacha Sauda Chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh has once again been released from Rohtak’s Sunaria Jail. He has got 30 days parole from the state authority. This is his 16th temporary release after 20 years of imprisonment in the Sadhvi sexual abuse case.

Baba, who considered himself God, came out of Sunaria jail at around 6:34 in the morning. There was no special arrangement for security at the time of his exit. Confirming this, his lawyer Jitendra Khurana said, “He has got parole today. It has been given by the state authority. He has got parole for 30 days.” He further said, “During the parole he will stay at his Dera Sacha Sauda in Sirsa.”

This is not the first case of a self-styled godman getting parole. Even before, his temporary release has drawn political criticism and security concerns.
