The Dhaka Times Desk New information about India's alleged religious guru Ram Rahim is emerging every day. Police are getting various information while investigating. Important among them is fake currency. Ram Rahim's dera was sold in its own currency!
Indian cleric Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, who was jailed in a double-rape case, found fake currency instead of Indian notes at his dera. These were their own currency systems. These fake coins were recovered during a police operation in Dera last Saturday.
Police said the coins looked exactly like toys. But these plastic toy coins were used for all kinds of transactions inside the dera. These coins were the Dera Pradhan's own, parallel currency system.
Police said that the color of 1 taka coin is blue and 10 taka coin is orange. Both are inscribed - 'Dhan Dhan Satguru Tera Hi Asara, Dera Sacha Sauda Sirsa.'
Earlier, the real picture of the interior of the Dera came out during the police search. From the 'fake' Eiffel Tower to the Taj Mahal, Disneyland, glittering seven-star hotels, multiplexes, farmlands and more, there were all kinds of luxury living facilities.
Devotees said that those plastic coins were given as money back when buying and selling with legal notes in the shops inside the ashram!
