Panchkula, Jan 11 : A CBI court Friday held Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh and three others guilty of murdering journalist Ram Chander Chhatrapati in 2002.

All the four accused have been convicted, CBI counsel HPS Verma told PTI after special CBI Judge Jagdeep Singh pronounced the verdict here.

The sentence will be pronounced on January 17.

The three others accused are Kuldeep Singh, Nirmal Singh and Krishan Lal.

The 51-year-old sect head appeared before the court through video conferencing from Rohtak's Sunaria jail.

Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh is currently serving a 20-year prison term in jail for raping two of his followers.

Chhatrapati was shot in October 2002 outside his house after his newspaper 'Poora Sach' published an anonymous letter narrating how women were being sexually exploited by Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh at the Dera headquarters in Sirsa.

The case was registered in 2003 and handed over to the CBI in 2006.

Ram Rahim was named the main conspirator in the case.                PTI

Panchkula, Jan 11: A local court on Thursday deferred the framing of charges against Honeypreet Insan, the adopted daughter of jailed Sirsa-based Dera Sacha Sauda head Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, and others in connection with the Panchkula violence to February 21.
Haryana Police produced Honeypreet alias Priyanka Taneja and 14 other accused in the court of Additional Sessions Judge Neerja Kulwant Kalson. 
The court deferred the framing of charges after Honeypreet's advocate argued that they were not provided a complete copy of the charge sheet. 
According to the police charge sheet, Honeypreet and the 45-member dera management committee had hatched the conspiracy to spread violence in Panchkula and Sirsa following the conviction of Dera chief in two rape cases on August 25. Around 40 people had lost their lives and more than 200 others were injured in the violence.
