The Haryana Police on Monday recovered a huge cache of ultra-modern arms and ammunition from the Dera chief’s headquarters in Sirsa in Haryana.

33 licensed arms, including 9-mm pistols, several single and double-barrel rifles have been recovered.

Dinesh Kumar, Sirsa Sadar SHO, confirmed that these arms were recovered from the Dera premises.

He said that following Ram Rahim’s conviction, their target was to recover all licensed as well as illegal arms from the Dera chief’s followers.

“All followers inside the Dera posess such weapons. There are almost 67 weapons with the people living in Dera, out of which, the police have recovered 33. The police have given strict orders that an action would be taken against those found possessing such weapons,” he said.

On Sunday,  a Dera Sacha Sauda follower allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself at Haryana’s Ambala Jail.

Ram Rahim was convicted by a CBI court in Panchkula on 25 August following in a 15-year old rape case, following which violence had erupted in Haryana and neighbouring states. At least 38 people were killed and around 250 injured in the clashes.

The Haryana Police had also arrested many Dera followers for creating a ruckus post-Ram Rahim’s conviction.

Earlier on 28 August, a CBI court awarded a 20-year jail term to the Dera Sacha Sauda chief in connection with two rape cases. The term in both cases is concurrent, forming an effective term of 10 years.
