ABAP President Mahant Giri

On Tuesday, Uttar Pradesh MSME Minister Sidharth Nath said that the state government is taking quick and strict action in Akhil Bhartiya Akhada Parishad chief Mahant Narendra Giri's death case and no accused will be spared.

Last respects were paid to the Mahant by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath who landed in Prayagraj.

On Monday, the ABAP President Mahant Narendra Giri was found dead under mysterious circumstances at Baghambari Math located residence.

The minister stated that everyone must wait for the forensic report and thereafter police will take further actions.

  • Earlier today, Uttar Pradesh Additional Director General (Law and Order), Prashant Kumar said that an FIR has been registered against Mahant Giri's disciple Anand Giri under IPC Section 306 (Abetment of suicide).

"The FIR has been registered on the basis of the complaint filed by another disciple Amar Giri Pawan Maharaj," said Kumar.

  • Kumar also informed that the accused Anand Giri was taken into police custody on Monday after his name surfaced along with two other names, in the suicide note found in the revered saint's death case.

Meanwhile, Anand Giri earlier said, "It is a big conspiracy by people who used to extort money from Guruji and wrote my name in the letter. It needs to be investigated as guru Ji has not written a letter in his life and could not do suicide. His handwriting needs to be probed."

Anand Giri, further appealed, "I have spent my entire life over there and never took any money. Everything was good between me and Guru Ji. Hence I request the government to investigate the matter thoroughly."
