A religious guru,Swamy Gangeshananda from India has apparently forgiven a woman he allegedly attempted to rape for cutting off his penis. He revealed he could use his genitals again following the incident eight months ago.
A 23-year-old woman, who claimed he had sexually abused her for years, reportedly hacked off his penis in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, in India. She was said to have attacked him with a blade she was hiding under a pillow after he attempted to rape her.
But Gangeshananda denied these claims and said he only confessed to the allegations in hospital because he was suffering and wanted medical help. ‘I helped some people and they were behind the incident. My fate is similar to that of Jesus Christ, who was deceived by people close to him,’ he said on Wednesday. ‘If I am guilty let it be proven before the court and God. ‘I am ready to accept punishment if I am found guilty. I do not have complaints against anyone and have forgiven those who attacked me.’
He added he forgave the perpetrator and even suggested there may have been a group of people involved. Doctors confirmed a fourth operation to fix his penis had been a success.
