Cops swarming Sadhguru's hub on court's order

Dozens of police personnel were deployed on Tuesday at the Isha Foundation in Coimbatore to conduct an enquiry on the directions of the Madras High Court into various allegations against the foundation.

The enquiry was based on the court order which heard a plea filed by a retired Professor of Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, S Kamaraj, who claims his grown up daughters Geetha Kamraj (42) and Latha Kamraj (39) had been brain-washed into living in the foundation as monks and restricted from getting in touch with their parents.

Professor Kamaraj moved a habeas corpus petition in the Madras High Court stating that his two daughters were being kept forcefully at the Isha foundation and that he wanted the intervention of the court to bring them back home. He told the court that he had received a telephone call from his elder daughter stating that his younger daughter had said that she would fast unto death if their father did not stop his legal action against Isha Foundation.
