Two 14-year old girls raped by Radha Soami Satsang Beas worker

For those who don't believe that sexual assault doesn't occur in Radha Soami Satsang Beas (RSSB), the India-based religious organization headquartered in India that I belonged to for 35 years, here's a story from October 2024 about the rape of two girls by a RSSB sevadar, or volunteer worker. There's a good chance this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to sexual assault in the organization. 

A shocking case of rape of two minor girls has come to light from Radha Soami Satsang Beas in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh.

The victims, who used to play in the premises of ashram located in Syana Kotwali area, were raped by the 65-year-old sevadaar. The incident came to light when a minor girl became four months pregnant.

The police have arrested the accused sevadaar.

Two 14-year-old girls, of a village in Syana police station area of Bulandshahr district, used to go to play in the premises of Radha Soami Satsang Beas every day. A sevadaar used to feed these girls intoxicating sweets in the name of prasad and used to rape them. The sevadaar has been committing the crime for the last eight months.

The matter came to light when a girl started experiencing stomach pain. When the family got the daughter examined by a doctor, it was found that she was four months pregnant. When the family asked the daughter about it, she revealed everything to her family.

The girl also told that her other friend also used to go to the ashram with her. The other girl also told the same thing. Then both the families lodged a complaint of the incident in the police station. The police registered a case and arrested the accused and sent both the girls to the district hospital for medical examination. The police are investigating the case.

 

Here's another story about the same incident.

 

Bulandshahr:Two minor girls were allegedly raped by a 75-year-old Radha Swami Satsang Vyas worker in the Syana Kotwali area here, police said on Friday.

The incident came to light after one of the victims became pregnant. Based on the families' complaints, the ashram worker used to rape them by feeding intoxicants in the name of sweet pills for eight months. We have arrested the accused, police said.

Police further said that the victims are from different families in the village and studying in classes six and eight, who used to go to the Satsang Vyas Ashram. "One of them stays right in front of the ashram. Therefore, both would go to play on the ashram premises," police added.

According to Bulandshahr Superintendent of Police Shankar Prasad, "A few days ago, one of the victims started having stomach pain and was rushed to the doctor. After the ultrasound report came, she was found four and a half months pregnant."

"The victim shared the entire incident with her kin mentioning her friend's story as well. Subsequently, both of the families headed to the Kotwali police to file a complain," the SP added.

Kotwali Police Station in-charge Premchand Sharma said that the accused chief servant Mohanlal was arrested. "The accused confessed his heinous act during the interrogation process," Sharma added.

Thankks. Karim

lol @ the illiterate genius who posted the link that says "Major RSSB Satsang Centres in India" thinking those are the only places to attend satsang. what a smart method to imply the total innocence of all rssb members as if they don't commit the same crimes as everyone else.

There are thousands of small rssb fields of grass (satsang centers) everywhere in India. There may be thousands in UP alone. They aren't only in Lucknow and Saharanpur. And it wouldn't surprise me if there was child molestation happening at every one of them. It's freaking india, man.

It's also kinda sad that many of you are still here writing the same things on repeat that you were years ago when I last posted. I checked the site to learn about the new rssb corporate guru, and I see manjit talking about lsd and whining a century too late about colonialism, spence tepper dodging the most basic and straightforward questions, and bunch of other names saying the same things they said back when you were all getting 8x vaxxxed and trusting the greatest of great gurus i.e. the governments and billionaires of the world.

real question though- will the new guru stop the rapes??? let's hope so.

[manjit]

Jesse: "whining a century too late about colonialism".

Hey Jesse! Being an American citizen, you are completely oblivious to reality and geopolitics.

Let me help you; your country is CURRENTLY, TODAY engaged in colonial genocide, and preparing for a colonial war against Iran which has the potential to destroy all of humanity.

TODAY.

Please try to pay attention if you're going to try and be smug and condescending, otherwise you just embarrass yourself by displaying your typical American ignorance and arrogance, as you have here!

Welcome back though!

Pardon.

Did you just say MAYBE? Perhaps you're just guessing.. I'll admit I've never been out the USA ghettos.

But thousands of RSSB Ashrams in Uttar Pradesh? Sounds like you mean thousands on this world map(?)

Absolutely horrifying. Thank you for speaking out and sharing this. These girls deserved protection, not exploitation within a place that claims to be spiritual and pure. The fact that this happened under the nose of an organization like RSSB, with such centralized control and wealth, raises serious questions about oversight — or the intentional lack of it.

And where was Gurinder Singh Dhillon during all of this? Too busy engineering his billionaire retirement scheme, quietly offloading assets to his cousin, and making deals behind closed doors? The leadership seems more interested in managing real estate portfolios and image than protecting children or addressing abuse.

One predator was caught — but how many more are still hiding under the guise of “seva”? This is not a random tragedy. This is systemic negligence, enabled by blind faith and unchecked power.
I think this is practise l remember when there was a murdered happened in Dera but shown as an accident as he wanted to sell his flat in the beas but RSSB didn't let him sell to any.outsider while his wife was really devastated . I think he was not from India
Other incident in UK when one man died while doing construction work in Haynes centre. After getting instruction direct from GSD all evidence were removed even after instructed them not to touch any thing. More than £300k were put fine on RSSB from UK court. Who paid this? Not Baba but from the pockets of normal sevadars(or brain washed people)

Thank you again for shedding light. Silence only helps abusers.

@ Suraj

When I was young, we were taught to respect a role, an office, an institution and NOT the human or humans that would wear the mantle of that role, office etc.

Why?

Because, all humans ave restricted capacity to wear the mantle of a role, an office with dignity.

For a moment think of how different personalities acted out the role of president in different nations. None were perfect and some even less.

India, based upon the media in the west, has a rather bad reputation with regard to male sexuality..again and again we read of all sorts ofe sexual abuses against women...even caste related.

In an interview with a cardinal of the roman catholic church discussing the financial malpractice of the Roman Church, he said .... look... although the Vatican is a state of its own, looking after its affairs in its own way, it is located in Italy and manned with Italians ... so it is impossible to extract the Italian-ism OUT of the Vatican .....what was his way of saying look the people in the Vatican are mostly italians and they are born corrupt ...hahahaha

You get my point?

So you say it wasn't an accident, and your 7 yr old article also DOESN'T say anybody forced or killed Mr. Blaggan.

More petty allegations. If we kill a fly without wings I bet it WAS murder by the boot.

[manjit]

Hey Brian, what are we to learn from this?

Are you suggesting there are folks who think sexual assault "doesn't occur in Radha Soami Satsang Beas (RSSB)" ?

What do you mean by "in"? In and around the property of a satsang? Does it have to be an official property or does rented also count? How about who's doing it, does it have to be senior official sevadars, or just anybody who turns up any place associated with any RS related folks?

What, precisely, is your point?

Any imbecile knows sexual assault occurs in pretty much every and any context, even in SCHOOLS.

Who are these people who think anything even remotely related to RS is immune from these human flaws? Can you name one, please?

Indian has a massive problem with sexual violence towards women, as indeed does the rest of the world including USA:

https://rainn.org/statistics/victims-sexual-violence

Is this a commentary about RSSB, RS, Gurinder, God, Religion, Patriarchy, lawlessness, Indian culture, misogyny, biology, what?

Oh wait, I get it - RSSB and religion bad, got it!

Excellent point, well made, nothing salacious or lacking integrity about it!

Well done!

[Kranvir]

What kind of environment is the dera rssb ??, it's certainly not for spiritually. It's a place you get abused for slave labour on the promise you will get access to heaven; You get bullied by inflated egos of sevadars who think they're special ; you get perved by desperate gurinder the sex predator; and pedophiles get special compassion and sympathy by gurinder singh dhillon.
The rssb deras are a hell, disguised as a place of God. The fake ass babas of beas are busy making business deals , appearances with Bollywood stars and hanging out with politicians more than looking after there own home. Murder, sex, pedophiles, are only reflections of gurinder and hence why he secretly enjoys this behaviour and so turns blind eye to it. This is understandable as his master is satan, kaal, shatan, Jot nirunjan.
