TNI Bureau: The self-styled godman Swami Nithyananda continues to be untraceable, even as the Karnataka Police have conducted search operations elsewhere in the state in connection with the FIR lodged against him.

Nithyananda was not found at his ashram in Bidadi. The Karnataka Government may seize his property. The godman is facing serious criminal charges, including rape, filed by his former disciples.

One of his former disciples, based in the US, has accused Swami Nithyananda of sexual abuse. It is believed that Nithyananda would be arrested in two days.
