"Don't Know Where He Is, Don't Need To": Bhole Baba's Lawyer
NDTV
The lawyer hired by the 'godman' is AP Singh, who has defended Nirbhaya gangrape convicts, represented Seema Haider and appeared on behalf of farm unions during the farmers' protests.
Making a late-night appearance outside the ashram in Mainpuri where Bhole Baba aka Narayan Saakar Hari is believed to be staying, the self-styled godman's lawyer said he does not know where he is and does not need to know either.
Repeating the claim that anti-social elements caused the stampede at the religious event organised in the godman's honour in Hathras, in which 121 people were killed, the lawyer also said the baba is a follower of the law and will not go on the run. The original name of the 'godman' is Suraj Pal.
The lawyer hired by Pal is AP Singh, who has defended Nirbhaya gangrape convicts, represented Seema Haider, the Pakistani woman who crossed over into India illegally, and appeared on behalf of farm unions during the farmers' protests.
