A former sanitation worker at Dharmasthala Manjunatha Swamy Temple in Karnataka, has alleged that he was forced to bury victims of rape and murder over nearly two decades. This isn’t the first controversy against the temple. In 2012, a teenager named Soujanya was raped and murdered in Ujire, a village in Dakshina Kannada district. Her family allege that one of the murderers worked for the temple. But each time media houses and activists raised their voice against this, they were silenced using gag orders and Ex parte injunctions.

In this episode of Let Me Explain, Pooja Prasanna breaks down the new allegations and explains how the media and activists have been restrained by courts over the years.
