The Mumbai police registered a fresh FIR against self-styled godwoman Radhe Maa and more than a dozen of her family members as well as associates. The FIR was registered based on a complaint filed by TV actress Dolly Bindra, according to a senior police official.
The FIR was registered by the suburban Borivali police after TV actress Dolly Bindra accused Radhe Maa of intimidation, sexual harassment and voyeurism.
An offence under Section 294, Section 354, Section 506(2), Section 109, Section 120 B has been registered against Radhe Maa, Sanjiv Gupta, Talli Baba, Bhupendra and others based on TV actress Dolly Bindra’s complaint at the Borivali police station.

The senior police official said Radhe Maa may be summoned soon in connection with this FIR.
In her complaint, Dolly Bindra has alleged that she used to be a follower of the godwoman. She attended her prayer meetings, but found them “obscene,” adding that the godwoman would “force” Dolly to “get close” to her male devotees.
Earlier, the suburban Kandivali police had registered an FIR against Radhe Maa for alleged dowry harassment in August.
Meanwhile, the Republican Party of India (A) has planned an agitation in Borivali on Friday to protest against the alleged misdeeds of Radhe Maa.
