Following a petition by Swami seeking to quash the cases, justice Arali Nagaraj issued notice to Bidadi police to produce all documents and records concerning various criminal cases.
Karnataka High Court today ordered the state police to produce all documents relating to the cases filed against self-styled godman Nithyananda Swami, facing allegations of involvement in sleazy activities.
Following a petition by Swami seeking to quash the cases, justice Arali Nagaraj issued notice to Bidadi police to produce all documents and records concerning various criminal cases, including rape, registered against the 'godman'.
Nityananda had also sought a stay on all other proceedings against him.
The Judge adjourned hearing of the case till March 25.
Nithyananda alias Rajasekharan, who is at large ever since the video clippings of his alleged sleaze acts involving an actress were telecast by private channels on March 2, in his petition contended that he was innocent.
The 32-year-old, in his petition, has alleged that one of his former disciples and driver Kurup Lenin had conspired to defame him and his Ashram by levelling charges against him.
The whereabouts of the self-styled swami, who was recently in the Kumbh Mela in Haridwar "are not known", according to police.
The cases, registered by Tamil Nadu police for various offences, including rape, against Nithyananda, were re-registered by the Bidadi Police here, under whose jurisdiction the Ashram falls.
They were transferred to the state Criminal Investigation Department police yesterday "because of the complex nature and inter-state ramifications", Ramanagaram district SP SB Bisnalli told PTI today.
