Satlok Ashram Head Rampal and others wereacquitted by a local court in two criminal cases today. However, the self-styled godman will remain in jail as there are more cases pending against him.
The court of Judicial Magistrate (first class) Mukesh Kumar was temporarily shifted to the Central Jail number-1 to pronounce the verdict in the case in view of security arrangements.
The court had completed the process of evidence in the FIR numbers 426 and 427 registered in Barwala Police Station on November 17 and November 18 in 2015, respectively.
In November 2014, Rampal holed up inside his ashram in Barwala and thousands of his followers resisted the police and paramilitary personnel from arresting the self-styled godman.
