Yes, it is me in the video: Swami Nithyananda


Bangalore, Mar 13: For the first time, the Swamiji Nithyananda has admitted that it is in fact him in the sex scandal video.


The spiritual guru, who made this shocking admission while speaking to Times Now TV, said that he did not think that he had done something wrong.


This comes a day after he made a direct reference to the video, which shows him fondling a Tamil actress Ranjitha, in an interview with his disciple Rajiv Malhotra.

It can be recalled that when Ranjitha first broke her silence over the controversy she also claimed that she was only offering her services to Nithyananda by feeding him and by giving him oil massages.

Speaking to the news channel on Saturday, Mar 13, the Swamiji said that Ranjitha, who is a volunteer and a devotee, was only serving him and taking care of him when he was sick.

He also said that he was in a state of trance when the video was recorded in Dec 2009. Parts of the video were manipulated and morphed, he added reiterating that the sex scandal was a conspiracy spun against him.

Stressing that his personal life was not only intruded on but also misrepresented by the media, the 33-year-old Swamiji said that he needs a chance to explain himself.
