New Delhi: Spiritual guru Asaram Bapu, arrested for sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl, was on Sunday subjected to a "Potency test, which confirmed that the 72-year-old's libido is active.
He was made to take the test after he told cops that he was impotent and therefore incapable of committing the crime he was charged with.
The police later said he was found capable of sexual assault.
On Sunday, he was interrogated for nearly four hours and even took him to the Hari Om Asram in Manai, 35 km from Jodhpur, to verify the events described by the 16-year-old girl.
The self-styled godman has denied the allegations so far. He claimed that he had never called the girl, she came to him.
The girl's father, a disciple of Asaram Bapu, has alleged that the guru asked him to bring his daughter to his ashram for an exorcism ritual as she was unwell.
But the police say there was no evidence that the girl was ill.
