Multi-layered security arrangements are arranged near Rohtak jail where Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh has been kept subsequent to his conviction in a 15-year-old rape case.

Self-styled godman will be sentenced on Monday by the court. The Dera chief, who was convicted by a court in Panchkula of raping two of his women followers at his ashram in 2002, was flown in a government helicopter to Rohtak and has been kept in a special cell at the District Jail at Sanoria, about 10 km from Rohtak.

The roads that lead to the jail have reportedly been fortified with huge security presence along the stretch Border Security Force (BSF) and Haryana police personnel are stationed in the vicinity of the jail.

Ram Rahim will not be brought to Panchkula for the sentencing. Judge Jagdeep Singh, who delivered the verdict on Friday, will be taken to the Rohtak prison where court proceedings will be held.

The Punjab and Haryana High Court on Saturday ordered the Haryana government to make necessary arrangements for the special CBI judge to be flown to the Rohtak district jail tomorrow to pronounce the quantum of sentence against the Dera Sacha Sauda chief.
