A shocking rape case has come to light where a college student has accused a Kshetrapal temple priest in Rajasthan’s Sikar district of sexually assaulting her multiple times after drugging her.
In her police complaint, the victim, a resident of Laxmangarh tehsil, alleges that the priest, identified as Baba Balaknath drugged her by offering sweets laced with narcotics during her visit to the temple. She was threatened by the priest and his driver threatened to kill her family if she disclosed the incident to anyone.
The victim’s first meeting with the priest was about a few months ago when she went to the Kshetrapal temple to pray. There she met Rajesh, who introduced her to Baba Balaknath.
The priest gained her trust and frequently invited her to the temple. He used to give her prasad (offerings). Rajesh even took her mobile number.

On the way, the priest gave her “prasad” saying this would “eliminate her troubles”. However, after consuming it the victim fainted, as reported news website News18 Hindi.
She alleged that the priest raped her thrice in the car. She could not resist due to the effects of the drugged sweets. When she tried to scream for help, the priest shut her mouth.
