Evidence Points to Radhanatha Swami

By Navadvipchandra Das - 26.6 2015

                                           The recent letter from devotee murderer Tirtha Das is quite
  aad
                                           revealing. While the aim of Tirtha's letter is to protect his close
                                           friend Radhanath Swami, what he actually does is confirm all of
                                           the allegations against him. Previously Janmashtami Das'
                                           allegations could be swept aside as the rantings of a bitter ex-
                                           devotee, some crackpot with an agenda to malign past leaders
                                           whom he didn't like. But now Tirtha Das has just corroborated
                                           everything that Janmashtami Das has been saying, and
                                           subsequently elevated his allegations to a whole new level of
                                           credibility.

Janmashtami Das has been saying all along that he was involved in the murder conspiracy, and that
he had been brought into it by Radhanatha Swami. He claimed that Radhanatha Swami was the one
who personally gave him the list of people to kill and where they could be found. Such a claim
soundeda        little unlikely. How could anyone believe this devotee was actually recruited personally into
the murder conspiracy? That was until Tirtha Das' recent groundbreaking letter was published, where
he openly admitted that Janmashtami Das was directly involved along with himself in the murder plot
and had been his driver on several of the hit trips.


This means Janmashtami's statements regarding the murder of Sulochana and the entire conspiracy
must now be seen in a completely different light. He is now a confirmed participant who is testifying as
a witness against the other criminals involved in this crime - the primary criminal leader being
Radhanatha Swami. His words now cannot simply be brushed aside and labeled as the rantings of an
angry ex-cult member.


Further, Janmashtami Das' statements have remained consistent from the very beginning, and he
never made any attempt to hide the fact that he had been recruited into the murder conspiracy and
had full knowledge of it. His story stayed the same from beginning to end, even the parts where he
showed himself in bad light. Compare that to the position of Tirtha Das, where he has switched his
story every day of the week, and is only caught lying when he accidentally lets the truth slip out,
thereby corroborating every word of Janmashtami Das. Tirtha Das now admits he has been lying all
these years to protect other conspirators in this crime. Whom those conspirators are Tirtha Das
doesn't mention, but he doesn't need to, because the other co-conspirator whom he has identified
(Janmashtami Das) has already revealed the participants in this murder conspiracy.

There were other further shocking revelations from Tirtha Das' letter, admissions he has never made
up till date:


1) There was a large conspiracy involving many people, for whom he took the blame to shield
them:

"The only reason Janmashtami was not prosecuted and sent to prison was because | shielded him
from the authorities." - Tirtha Das, Confession Letter, December 24, 2006


Who else did you shield from the authorities? Who were the leaders who gave you the order to kill
Sulochana, whom you shielded? The eyewitness testimony of Janmashtami Das says that
Radhanatha Swami is the main person you are shielding, and that would explain why Radhanatha
Swami tried to meet with you in prison multiple times (as stated in your previous letter). From your
public admission regarding Janmashtami Das' involvement in the murder conspiracy it is clear that he
directly knows who were involved and who gave the order to kill Sulochana, and he is pointing all
fingers directly at Radhanatha Swami, one of the main leaders of New Vrindavan at the time of the
murder.


2) Till the present date he has not honestly told everything he knows about this ghastly crime.
Today he is admitting there was a conspiracy with other members involved, whereas in the past he
has denied this. Some foolish people like Umapati Swami said he should be forgiven for all his past
crimes. But when he has not yet admitted to the real crimes, nor has he revealed the other criminals
involved, why should anyone forgive him or feel sorry for him? Until he fully confesses to the details of
the crime he can never be forgiven. But his ISKCON friends in high places (Radhanatha Swami,
Chandramauli Swami, Umapati Swami, and plenty of others) have taken good care of him. They have
given him official recognition in ISKCON as a leading preacher in ISKCON prison ministries, they have
published his own books through ISKCON, they have written the introduction to his book, and they
have personally tried to visit him manv times in iail. Whv? What is their close intimate connection with

the murderer Tirtha Das? Are they also some of the co-conspirators he has been covering for all these
years? Why does the GBC allow such criminals like Radhanatha Swami to repay devotee murderers
with ISKCON favors?

3) Tirtha Das fully admits that Janmashtami Das was directly and intimately involved in the
murder conspiracy.
This elevates Janmashtami Das' statements to those of a co-conspirator and direct eyewitness,
testifying against other criminals whom he worked under. This is the most serious revelation in Tirtha
Das' recent letter. The GBC needs to review this matter immediately and address how Radhanatha
Swami can remain a guru in ISKCON while such serious charges have been leveled against him (with
credible evidence and witnesses). If the GBC chooses not to investigate this matter, it shows that they
are already infiltrated and controlled by Kirtanananda's henchmen (Radhanatha Swami, Umapati
Swami, Devamrita Swami, Malati, Chandramauli Swami, Varshana Swami, Chandrasekhar Swami and
others).

Further, murderer Tirtha Das had also reported the fact that his friend, Radhanatha Swami, had
recently been identified by a drug-sniffing dog when he tried to enter the prison to visit him. When a
highly trained drug sniffing police dog identifies someone, it means that they are either carrying drugs
or that they have the residue of illegal drugs on them (from personal use). The GBC should find out
whether Radhanatha Swami has been personally using illegal drugs, or whether he was trying to
smuggle illegal drugs into the prison to repay Tirtha Das for covering for him in the Sulochana murder.


                                        “We deplore the fact that H.H. Radhanath Swami and H.H.
  mia                                   Chandramauli Swami have been repeatedly denied
                                        access to the Mount Olive Correctional Complex on the
                                        pretext that a drug sniffing dog alerted to the presence of
                                        illicit drugs on their persons." - Letter from Tirtha Das

                                        | request devotees to forward this letter to all known disciples of
                                        Radhanatha Swami so that his criminal background can be
                                        exposed. In the following pages detailed evidences are
                                        provided, all pointing towards Radhanatha Swami being the
                                        leader who ordered the murder of Sulochana. Personally
                                        ordering the murder of another devotee is a terrible sin that not
                                        even Krishna can forgive. Radhanatha Swami was a neophyte
                                        rascal who publicly propagated that the pedophile child molester
Kirtanananda was a pure devotee whom everyone had to worship. When devotees tried to expose
Kirtanananda's child molestation, Radhanatha Swami is said to have taken the matter into his own
hands, ordering the killing of these devotees to silence the critics. This is the true spiritual background
of Radhanatha Swami that everyone should know.


We should also note that Tirtha Das never attempts to deny Janmashtami Das' statements. Instead he
just threatens Janmashtami Das that bad things will happen to him if he keeps speaking against
Radhanatha Swani. He even states that he will reveal unknown secrets about the murders to the
police:


"The only reason Janmashtami was not prosecuted and sent to prison was because | shielded him
from the authorities. However, since there is ultimately no statute of limitations on murder, should
Janmashtami persist in his moronic rantings, perhaps some arrangement can be made for an
interview with the US Attorney's Office." - Tirtha Das, Confession Letter, December 24, 2006

Besides Tirtha Das' latest confession letter, other shocking evidences are cited below, which again
point to a larger conspiracy involving Radhanatha Swami.


1) When the police arrested Tirtha Das and Tapahpunja Swami, 5 days after the murder, he had
$4,000 in cash in his possession. There were also written, unsigned instructions (found on Tapahpunja
Swami) that Tirtha Das should leave the country if the police start looking for him. Who gave the
money to Tirtha Das to fund the murder and to flee the police? Who wrote the instructions that Tirtha
Das should flee the country if the police started looking for him? Was Tirtha Das an insane person who
wrote notes to himself just in case he forgot what his plan was? It is obvious that there were higher
leaders involved in the murder conspiracy, otherwise who gave the money and who wrote the note?

"Kent Police Detective Ronald Piatt and his partner said that when they arrested Drescher, they found
on him "surveillance notes" describing Bryant's van, his physical appearance and his movements in
Los Angeles. Drescher also carried $4,000 in cash.

With Drescher when he was arrested, Piatt said, was a Krishna priest from Cleveland [Tapahpunja
Swami] who had clippings from three newspapers about the death of Bryant and written instructions of
unknown origin saying that if Drescher were ever wanted by police, he should be sent to a temple in
New York, then flown to India." - Los Angeles Times, "Killing Sparks Federal Probe of Krishna Sect"
(July 20, 1986)

2) Also arrested with Tirtha Das was Tapahpunja Swami (Terry Sheldon). What was Tapahpunja
Swami, one of the leaders of New Vrindavan, doing hiding Tirtha Das from police in Ohio? Obviously
someone had instructed him to do this, so who was it? From the note in his possession it was clear
that he knew Tirtha was the murderer, and as has been stated by Janmashtami Das, he was actually
one of the three devotees asked by Radhanatha Swami to kill Sulochana (the other two being Tirtha
Das and Janmashtami Das). How would Tapahpunja Swami be involved in hiding Tirtha Das from the
police unless there was a larger conspiracy, with a leader ordering them what to do?


3) Tirtha Das was arrested on May 27th, just five days after he had committed the murder in Los
Angeles. On July 5th Tirtha Das' mobile home was burned in a mysterious fire:

"The detective added that a fire of undetermined origin burned Drescher's mobile home July 5th." - Los
Angeles Times, "Killing Sparks Federal Probe of Krishna Sect" (July 20, 1986)

With Tirtha Das in prison, who was it who set fire to his mobile home to hide evidence? And who gave
that order to burn his mobile home? It is obvious there was a larger conspiracy involving many other
people. Who the leader of that conspiracy was will be dealt with shortly.


4) The day after Tirtha's arrest, an explosion occurred injuring one of the key witnesses against Tirtha
Das:

"The principal witness, Randol Gorby, was seriously injured in an explosion at his home the day after
Drescher was apprehended in Ohio, authorities said." - Los Angeles Times, "Killing Sparks Federal
Probe of Krishna Sect" (July 20, 1986)

With Tirtha Das in prison, who planted the explosives? Was it all a strange coincidence?


5) In November of 1986 Sulochana's son, Nimai Bryant, mysteriously drowns at New Vrindaban, just
months after his father was murdered. He didn't have any past habit of entering the water at all.
Coincidentally, Chakradhari's son also died mysteriously at new Vrindavan (in 1984) just months after
his father was murdered by Tirtha Das. His son was found suffocated inside an abandoned
refrigerator. Is it merely a coincidence that the two people Tirtha murdered also had their sons die
mysteriously within a few months of their fathers being killed? It is much more likely that the
conspiracy leader ordered the sons to be killed, knowing that they would grow up to avenge their
father's murders, likely killing the New Vrindavan leaders responsible. Since Tirtha was in prison at the
time of the drowning, then who killed Sulochana's son?

6) In sworn testimony, Tapahpunja Swami [Terry Sheldon] stated that he was the one to inform
Kirtanananda about the murder plot:

"Sheldon said he participated in the surveillance of Bryant with Drescher and told Bhaktipada of the
plot to kill Bryant." - Associated Press "Hare Krishna member says he acted at leader's behest" (April
18, 1996)

Thus the murder plot never came down from Kirtanananda to Tirtha Das, rather the murder plot was
already decided by some other leaders who gave the order to Tirtha Das and Tapahpunja,
and Tapahpunja later told this plan to Kirtanananda. This is exactly what Janmashtami Das has been
saying from the very beginning:

"In January of 1986, on my return to New Vrindaban, | was ordered by Radhanath to neutralize
Sulochana. Three of us were ordered by Radhanath, not by Kirtanananda Swami, to terminate
Sulochana. This happened with Tapahpunja Swami and Tirtha in November and December of 1985. |
was on SKP until Christmas and didn't get back to the farm until New Year’s. Immediately on our
arrival at New Vrindaban, Radhanath sought me out and made arrangements for us to meet in his van,
where he went through a prepared speech that he had delivered to Tirtha, Tanah Punja Swami and
Kuladri many times before. Later talks with Tirtha confirmed this." - Janmashtami Das, "New Vrindaban
History, for the Record", (December 22, 2006)

It is now a confirmed fact that Janmashtami was the third person instructed to kill Sulochana, and this
was admitted in Tirtha Das' recent shocking confession letter:


"It may be of interest to note that the author of one recent self-styled expose, Janmashtami dasa, was
himself a co-conspirator in the death of Sulochana, accompanying myself on several trips to California,
he motoring about with various guns and cyanide for the express purpose of finding and dispatching
Sulochana. The only reason Janmashtami was not prosecuted and sent to prison was because |
shielded him from the authorities." - Tirtha Das, Confession Letter, December 24, 2006

We saw that Tapahpunja confirms Janmashtami Das' account that Kirtanananda didn't give the order
to kill Sulochana, but that someone else did. We also saw that he confirms Janmashtami Das' account
that there were other people who were asked to kill Sulochana (at the very minimum Tirtha and
Tapahpunja). These two points are not admitted by Tirtha Das, but now that two out of three of the hit

men have made the same admissions, it is clear that Tirtha is holding back information. We have
already seen Tirtha Das admit that he has secret information about this case that he would expose to
the police if Janmashtami didn't keep quiet. So it is clear who the credible witnesses are.

Taking both Janmashtami Das' and Tapahpunja Swami's admissions, we have the following:

Radhanatha Swami believed Kirtanananda was a pure devotee. When Sulochana began exposing
Kirtanananda's child molestation cases, Radhanatha decided he was an offender who needed to be
silenced. Radhanatha Swami contacted three devotees (Tirtha Das, Tapahpunja Swami and
Janmashtami Das) and instructed them to kill Sulochana. Tapahpunja Swami later took this plan back
to Kirtanananda and informed him of it.

Radhanatha Swami's actions are easy to understand when one knows how much he believed
Kirtanananda was a pure devotee. Even as late as 1991, five years after the murder of Sulochana,
and years after Kirtanananda's child molestation was known, Radhanatha Swami still publicly glorified
Kirtanananda as a pure devotee:

"Bhaktipada is a man of spirit. He is not a man of external form, and he's been training us intensely.
Why do you think he changed the dress from dhotis to robes? It was for one reason - preaching in the
West. But that's not all. He saw that we were attached to the concept of being a devotee based on
how we look externally rather than being fixed in the spirit of devotion. Why are you sitting in chairs
instead of on the floor? Why are the hymns in English instead of Sanskrit? Why is our hair an inch long
rather than shaved off? On one level, it's practical for preaching in the West, but Bhaktipada had
something much deeper and more profound than just that. He saw that we were ritualistically attached
to our approach to God, just like practically all other so-called religious persons in this world. We
thought we were devotees because of how we looked, how we sang, and how we wore our hair.
Bhaktipada wanted us to smash through all these external trappings and go right to the essence of the
spirit of bhakti." - Radhanatha Swami, "A Perfect Plan to Increase Devotion," New Vrindaban World,
no. 8 (April 26, 1991)

7) In Kirtanananda’s trial, the jury was not convinced that he was involved in the Sulochana murder
conspiracy. For the RICO conspiracy count the jurors were provided a paper with a check list, where
they should indicate which counts they thought Kirtanananda was guilty of. The paper looked like this:


IF YOU FIND THE DEFENDANT GUILTY OF [the count]
PLEASE CHECK THE PARTICULAR PREDICATE ACTS YOU HAVE UNANIMOUSLY CONCLUDED
HAVE BEEN PROVEN BY THE UNITED
STATES WITH RESPECT TO DEFENDANT SWAMI.

1) STEPHEN BRYANT MURDER
2) CHARLES ST. DENNIS MURDER
3) ERR KIONAPPING
4) MAIL FRAUD: FUNDRAISING
5) MAIL FRAUD: ALLSTATE INSURANCE

The following trial document states:

“After a trial, the jury convicted Swami on the RICO and mail fraud counts but failed to reach a verdict
on the murder counts.

The jury found Swami guilty of the RICO conspiracy count and checked all of the predicate acts except
the Stephen Bryant murder. The jury also found Swami guilty of the RICO substantive count (Count
Il) but did not check either the Stephen Bryant murder or the Charles St. Dennis murder as predicate
acts."

Thus even the jury, who heard all the evidence against Kirtanananda, didn't believe he was the one
behind the murder conspiracy. The jury didn't believe it.


It is already proven that there was a conspiracy, but who the leader was that gave the order is what
remains a mystery. The jury did not believe that Kirtanananda was that leader who gave the order to
murder Sulochana. If it wasn't Kirtanananda, then who was it? One of the co-conspirators has already
confessed and stated that it was Radhanatha Swami who gave the order to murder Sulochana, and all
evidence points in his direction, but was Radhanatha Swami the only one who knew?

8) When we see how past New Vrindavan leaders interact with this convicted murderer Tirtha Das, it
follows a very peculiar pattern. Every one of them is lightning quick to defend his character and point
out his wonderful spiritual qualities. Wait a minute, is this the same Tirtha Das who brutally killed
devotee Chakradhari Das (Charles St. Denis):

"Prosecutors said St. Denis was shot a dozen times, stabbed, beat with a hammer and finally
suffocated with plastic wrap placed in his mouth before he was buried." - Associated Press (August 31,
1986)

Or as another reporter has described it:

                                  "Chuck St. Denis did not die easy. Two gunmen pumped twelve .22
                                  caliber rounds into him. He was stabbed repeatedly in the chest with
                                  a kitchen knife and a screwdriver. As the life fled from him he howled
                                  like a dog. His cranium was fractured with a hammer. He opened his
                                  eyes and spoke to his killers after they were sure he was finally dead.
                                  His killers buried him under a stream, which is probably a good way
                                  to make a spirit unquiet, if such a thing can be done." - Charles
                                  Carreon, "Killer Krishnas from Inner Space"


                                  This is the person whom people like Malati, Umapati, Radhanatha
                                  Swami and Chandramauli Swami glorify as the perfect devotee.
                                  Below is exactly what Malati (ex-Swami) says about the person who
                                  shot Chakradhari Das a dozen times, then stabbed him with a kitchen
                                  knife, then stabbed him with a screw driver, then bashed his head
                                  with a hammer, and when he      still wouldn't die, wrapped plastic over
                                  his mouth to suffocate him:


"The person who was charged with and admitted to the murders of Steve Bryant and St. Denis is
Thomas Drescher, aka Tirtha das, who is in prison for life. Therein lies an interesting story, should
anyone care to know. But, to make a long story short, this person has undergone a deeply profound
rectification and transformation. So much so that the chief prosecutor against him, Michael Stein from
the District Attorney's office, feels that he is worthy of a pardon. He contacted me recently and in that
conversation stated that he has rarely, almost never, witnessed a change in the character of a
convicted felon, but he has seen this in the case of Thomas Drescher, who he refers to by his initiated
name, Tirtha das. On his end, Mr. Drescher has become a sober humble person, accepting the results
of his awful deeds (double life sentence w/o possible parole) as a befitting indication of Krishna's
mercy on him." - Malati Dasi, letter to Girinayaka Das, December 26 2006


                                        Umapati Swami also wrote up a nice defense for Tirtha, saying
  aad
                                        that he had immediately rejected Kirtanananda as soon as the
                                        news of his sexual misconduct came out:


                                        "The stories of Kirtanananda's sexual misconduct came out long
                                        after| left New Vrindaban. When that happened, Tirtha rejected
                                        him and testified against him in court. Tirtha also wrote a letter
                                        to the GBC renouncing all claims to the title of sannyasi." -
                                        Letter from Umapati Swami, (December 18, 2006)

                                        But for the rest of the sane world, they wouldn't need to wait for
that information to come out in order to reject him. A normal person would have rejected Kirtanananda
as soon as the talk of murdering someone on his behalf arose. This person not only heard such
discussions, but actually carried out the murder personally - of multiple devotees!


Umapati offered other special favors to murderer Tirtha Das, for example initiating him into the
sannyasa order in August of 1987, even after he had been convicted of murdering devotees by a court
of law. Umapati Swami personally went inside the prison and performed the sannyasa initiation of
Tirtha, acting as a Ritvik priest on behalf of Kirtanananda.

Other ISKCON gurus are also involved in awarding Tirtha Das special favors. For
example, Chandramauli Swami, who is in charge of ISKCON Prison Ministries, has made Tirtha one of
his main highlighted preachers. If you go to the ISKCON Prison Ministries website you will see a
prominent link to Tirtha's personal website displayed at the top of the page, along with many other
articles written by Tirtha Das. You can also find murderer Tirtha Das featured on
ISKCON's Namahatta.org, with his articles and a nice photo of him in prison.

                                        Chandramauli Swami has personally visited Tirtha Das many
  aad
                                        times in jail. He has also written the introduction to Tirtha's book,
                                        titled "The Definitive Guide to Practicing Krsna Consciousness
                                        in Prison". In addition to writing the introduction, he has also
                                        arranged for the book to be published by ISKCON. Why does
                                        murderer Tirtha Das get his book published by ISKCON? That's
                                        a good question that only Chandramauli Swami can answer.


                                        There are also reports that these former New Vrindavan leaders
have been regularly supplying money to Tirtha Das even today. Even if that cannot be verified, there is
enough evidence to show that Tirtha Das is being shown very special treatment by the former New
Vrindavan leaders - the same leaders who may possibly be involved in the murder conspiracy.

Considering the despicable nature ot |Irtna Vas’ crime, It is amazing tnat ne remains a member ot

ISKCON in good standing, receives many visits from ISKCON Gurus and GBCs, has his book
published by ISKCON, has his articles featured on ISKCON Prison Ministries website, and even has
an ISKCON Guru write the introduction to his book and help him promote it. Anytime someone tries to
hint that Tirtha Das is bad, these leaders jump up in his defense to tell everyone how he is really an
amazing saint. Something just doesn't smell right in all of this. When we add the fact that Radhanatha
Swami tried to visit him in prison, but was identified by a drug sniffing dog, then the alarm bells really
start ringing. Was Radhanatha Swami trying to pay off Tirtha by smuggling illegal drugs into the
prison?


"We deplore the fact that H.H. Radhanath Swami and H.H. Chandramauli Swami have
been repeatedly denied access to the Mount Olive Correctional Complex on the pretext that a drug
sniffing dog alerted to the presence of illicit drugs on their persons." - Letter from Tirtha Das


With Janmashtami Das' testimony implicating Radhanatha as the one who gave the order to kill
Sulochana, everything makes sense and fits in place. Tirtha Das has all the information on these
people to put them away for life. They must give him special treatment to make sure he doesn't
change his mind and let the secrets out. That special treatment may possibly go as far as smuggling
illegal drugs into the prison for him. In U.S. prisons drugs are more valuable than money, they are the
real currency.

9) The above clearly explains Radhanatha Swami's special affection for Tirtha, but what about these
other people like Malati, Chandramauli Swami, Umapati, etc.? What would they gain by showing
special favors to Tirtha Das?


The answer to this becomes clear when we realize how many people knew about the murder plot.
Janmashtami Das stated that after receiving the order to kill Sulochana from Radhanatha Swami,
Tapahpunja immediately tried to involve others in the plot such as Yudhisthir Das from San Diego. As
the trial shows, it is beyond doubt that Yudhisthir was an accomplice and knew what was going on,
and that is why he was called to testify. Tirtha simultaneously contacted others in Los Angeles to
involve them in the hit as well.

That many people became aware of the murder plan is also clear from how long it took the police to
arrest Tirtha Das. Just 5 days after the murder, Tirtha Das was arrested in Kent, Ohio, along with
Tapahpunja Swami, while preparing to flee the country. How is it possible for the police to immediately
identify the name of the murderer and locate him across the country in 5 days, just from the forensic
evidence at the crime scene? It is only possible if one of the many people who had been informed of
the murder plot ratted him out. Where did they get the name of the murderer, the location he was
hiding, and other details from? Tirtha Das and Tapahpunja had tried to involve too many people in the
murder plot, and the result was they were immediately ratted out.

How does this connect to Malati and the other New Vrindavan leaders? If Radhanatha Swami is calling
three separate people to kill Sulochana (Tirtha, Tapahpunja, and Janmashtami), and if they are
subsequently informing many other people across the country about the murder plot, it is clear that
secrecy isn't the top priority here. It is likely that Radhanatha Swami may have first consulted with
senior leaders of New Vrindavan before ordering the hit, to get their opinion and approval. These
leaders would include people such as Malati, Devamrita Swami, Chandramauli Swami, Umapati
Swami, Kuladri, Bhakti Tirtha Swami, and others. This would clearly explain why all of these people
are in a rush to defend Tirtha, to provide special favors to Tirtha, and to always keep Tirtha happy in
prison. He knows that they were all involved or in a position to know about the murder conspiracy, and
if he ever develops a dislike for them, then he will reveal their involvement, just like he threatened to
reveal the involvement of Janmashtami Das.


                                          Malati has already admitted that she is aware of some secrets
  aia                                     involving the murder that she hasn't mentioned:

                                          "For that matter, there is a strong contingent of persons who
                                          insist that "Janmashtami" was directly involved in the murder of
                                          Steve Bryant, although never charged." - Malati Dasi, letter to
                                          Giri-nayaka Das, December 26 2006

                                          She clearly knows details she is not revealing, and is subtly
                                          trying to threaten Janmashtami to keep quiet or face the
                                          consequences. Why else would she mention such a thing? Let
                                          her identify "the strong contingent of persons" who informed her
                                          of this inside information so we can havea   list of the criminals
                                          involved in this case. Unfortunately the list of names will include
                                          Radhanatha Swami, Devamrita Swami, Chandramauli Swami
and herself, so she will never give us that information.

In an attempt to discredit the eye-witness testimony of Janmashtami Das, Malati tells us all about his
villainaiie nact   and aanchidac that ha ic lika a mad dann:

WINCHES   PAS,   GH   CUNIUUES   HI    WONG   GU     ULYy.




"To describe him in one word would be to say that he is deranged. He is like a mad dog." - Malati Dasi,
letter to Giri-rnayaka Das, December 26 2006

But what Malati fails to mention are her own transcendental qualifications: the fact that


and the fact that she was previously one of Kirtanananda's female sannyasis, Malati Swami. Such
hypocrisy, seeing that they are surrounded by murderers, pedophiles, homosexuals and drug addicts.

10) Conclusion: The only way for the devotees to solve this case and to remove these corrupt
murderers from power is if the ISKCON GBC insists that all participants undergo a polygraph test and
answer questions about the murder. People who should be questioned include:

Tirtha Das
Tapahpunja (ex-Swami)
Radhanatha Swami
Malati (ex-Swami)
Devamrita Swami
Chandramauli Swami
Kirtanananda (ex-Swami)
Umapati Swami
Kuladri (ex-Swami)
Janmashtami Das

If all of these devotees are allowed to tell their stories and be questioned while simultaneously
undergoing a polygraph test we will be able to find the answers once and for all to who was involved in
this despicable crime of murdering a Vaishnava. Refusal to take the polygraph test should be viewed
by the GBC as admission of guilt, and the individuals should be expelled from ISKCON permanently. If
they have nothing to hide, then why would they fear taking a polygraph test to prove their innocence?
All circumstantial evidence points to Radhanatha Swami as the leader of the murder conspiracy. It is
up to these suspects to voluntarily take the lie detector test and establish their innocence.
