This money was deposited in 18 bank accounts and 28 fixed deposits. This money is linked to a trust established by the accused, Parthasarathi, also known as Baba Chaitanyananda Saraswati. A case was also filed in 2016 against Chaitanyananda Saraswati, who allegedly molested female students at the Sri Sharda Institute of Indian Management and Research in Delhi. At that time, a girl managed to escape from Chaitanyananda's clutches. While fleeing, the girl had left her bag and documents behind. Despite this, Chaitanyananda's men followed her to her home. Kept the victim students locked in a room In an FIR filed in 2016, the girl alleged that Chaitanyananda kept the victim students locked in a room. The victim was 20-21 years old at the time. Swami Chaitanyananda Saraswati would call her at night and talk obscenely to her, calling her "baby" and "sweet girl." The girl stated that Chaitanyananda had snatched her phone from her. He kept her alone in the hostel and scolded her for talking to other students. Chaitanyananda pressured her to take a two-day trip to Mathura, which the girl was reluctant to do. Fearing Chaitanyananda, she was forced to flee, leaving behind her bag and documents. Even after she fled, Chaitanyananda's men followed her home.
