In a startling revelation, a lawyer representing Bhole Baba has alleged that 'anti-social elements' orchestrated the stampede at the preacher's recent satsang, which left 121 dead.
The lawyer refuted preliminary government reports that the tragedy occurred when followers, mainly women, surged forward to collect soil touched by Bhole Baba's feet as he exited the venue.
Supreme Court lawyer A P Singh claimed the confusion ensued due to a premeditated conspiracy and called for an investigation. Singh denied any such practice involving Bhole Baba and demanded scrutiny into the entire incident. The preacher and his followers are prepared to cooperate fully with authorities.
