Haryana: Gun-loving Sadhvi' surrenders, says didn't kill anyone at wedding

Chandigarh: Self-proclaimed godwoman Sadhvi Deva Thakur on Friday surrendered herself to the police in Haryana after a case was registered against her for killing a woman and injuring three others during a wedding in the state.

Thakur, who is known for her love for guns, was invited at a wedding last week in Karnal town and began to fire guns along with some other men at the venue during the celebrations, killing the groom’s aunt.

According to reports, Thakur has claimed innocence and said the case is a conspiracy against her.

"I am innocent, I need urgent medical attention, it's a conspiracy against me, there were other people who were firing," she said.

However, she was caught on camera wearing saffron coloured clothes and shooting a gun in front of a stage at the wedding venue. Although in the video, one can only see her firing shots in the air and nobody is seen injured.

She allegedly shot the groom’s aunt by mistake and fled the scene as soon as the woman collapsed.

Police said that it was a case of celebratory fire gone wrong but they are charging the godwoman with murder.
