Jodhpur police have written to the immigration department to issue look-out notice against self-styled godman Asaram Bapu to ensure that he does not leave the country.
"We have issued a request letter to Joint Director- Immigration in Delhi seeking look-out notice against Asaram who has been summoned by Jodhpur police in connection with a sexual exploitation case lodged against him," DCP Ajay Lamba said.
A team of Jodhpur police has delivered summon to Asaram in Indore today, he said.
The team had to wait for nearly eight hours in the ashram of Asaram to meet him and for delivering the notice, Lamba said.
When asked what the police will do if the accused failed to appear within the given time-frame, the official said, "We will later decide what step we have to take if Asaram does not come."
Jodhpur police yesterday delivered summons to Asaram in Ahmedabad to appear before it for questioning by August 30 in connection with the allegation of sexual abuse levelled against him by the 16-year-old girl.
