Last month, the Tamil Nadu Police had told the bench that six people have gone missing from Isha Foundation since 2016.
The police had made the submission orally during the hearing on Thirumalai’s Habeas Corpus petition.
Thirumalai approached the Court after Ganesan, 46, went missing from Isha Foundation in March last year. He had told the Court that after he had been unable to establish contact with his brother for several days, he had contacted the Isha Foundation.
However, all that the Foundation had told him at the time was that his brother, who worked at the ashram, had not reported for two days. Following the same, Thirumalai lodged a police complaint and subsequently moved the High Court.
However, the police told the Court during the previous hearing that many who leave the Foundation, often did so on their own will.
