A Chengalpattu special court has dismissed three bail applications of selfstyled godman and founder of Sushil Hari International Residential School Siva Sankar Baba who was arrested on charges of sexually abusing minor students.

Refusing any relief to Baba, special judge for cases under the Pocso Act P Velmurugan on Monday dismissed all the three bail applications moved by him.

The court concurred with the submission of the CB-CID police that the accused who is an influential person might tamper the evidence and threaten the witnesses if enlarged on bail.

According to the prosecution, the All Women Police Station, Mamallapuram has so far, registered three different FIRs against Baba for sexually abusing his students under the provisions of the Prevention of Children against Sexual Offences (Pocso) Act and IPC.

The accused who was absconding since the issue came to light was traced down by the CB-CID near Delhi.
