THURMASTON'S RAJANI MOHANIAL, THE HINDU GURU, ADMITS TO SEXUAL ABUSE IN LEICESTER

In a disturbing case that has shocked the local community, 76-year-old Rajani Mohanial, a self-proclaimed Hindu spiritual leader residing in Thurmaston, has confessed to sexually abusing two teenage girls. The offenses took place over a span of several years, specifically between 2008 and 2013, at a place of worship located in Leicester as well as at his private residence.

Both victims, who were minors at the time, endured the abuse during their adolescence, a period that is supposed to be one of growth and innocence. The details of the case emerged during a court hearing at Leicester Crown Court, where Mohanial appeared to face charges related to his heinous actions.

He pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual assault involving female victims. Additionally, he admitted to causing a girl aged 13 or older to engage in indecent activity on two separate occasions. The court proceedings revealed that Mohanial, who resides on Silverdale Drive in Thurmaston, had been scheduled for trial the previous day. However, he returned to court today, September 14, to formally enter his guilty pleas.

The court has scheduled his sentencing for this upcoming Friday. In the meantime, the presiding judge ordered that Mohanial be registered as a sex offender for the remainder of his life, a measure that underscores the severity of his crimes and the impact on his victims.

This case highlights the disturbing reality of abuse within communities and the importance of justice for victims. The community in Thurmaston and Leicester will undoubtedly be shaken by the revelations, and authorities continue to emphasize the need for vigilance and support for survivors of such crimes.
