  • Sona Mohapatra Pokes Fun At Mika Singh For Supporting Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh

Noted singer Sona Mohapatra is trending all over the social media, once again. The 41-year-old vocalist on Saturday poked fun at Punjabi sensation Mika Singh for supporting Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh who was recently convicted in a rape case.

 

It all started on Friday when Mika extended his best wishes to Ram Rahim ahead of the much-anticipated verdict. "My best wishes to Dr Gurmeet Ram Rahim bhaaji .. I hope the court will make the right decision. The greatest thing is he went on time," he posted on the microblogging website.

 
 

Apparently, Mika's tweet didn’t go well with Sona and she replied, "Wah jee Wah Mika jee. Aap key kitney achiever dost hain! #RamRahimConvicted #RamRahimVerdict #Rapist #Godman."

 
 

Eighteen years after he raped two of his female disciples, Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh was on Monday sentenced to 20 years jail for rape and criminal intimidation and fined Rs 30 lakh.

 

The rapist sect chief has been sentenced to 10 years imprisonment in each of the two cases of rape. Both the sentences will run consecutively, the sect chief's counsel S.K. Garg Narwana said after the special CBI judge pronounced the sentence in the District Jail in Sunaria, which was brought under extraordinary security following Friday's violence.

 

The rape victims will get Rs 14 lakh each as compensation from the fine, CBI special court Judge Jagdeep Singh, who was flown in a helicopter from Chandigarh, said in the judgment.

 

Earlier, there was confusion over the term of the sentence, with reports that Ram Rahim was sentenced to 10 years in jail. Later, his counsel clarified the position.
