Swami will undergo tests to prove he can’t have sex
Identity of the doctors conducting the battery of tests has been kept hush-hush. One test could be injecting erection-stimulating drugs
Bangalore: After declaring his impotency, Swami Nithyananda has been playing cat-and-mouse with the CID, ignoring umpteen letters and not appearing for medical tests. Not any more.
With the court’s go-ahead, the CID has chosen July 30 to put the controversial godman through a battery of tests at Victoria Hospital to prove (or disprove) that he is capable of indulging in sex, a CID source said.
The doctors will have no restrictions and will be allowed to conduct any test they feel necessary on Nithyananda, another CID source said. “A notice has already been served to Nithyananda to be present on the morning of July 30 at the CID headquarters, from where he will be taken to Victoria Hospital under tight security.
If he fails to turn up for the tests, the CID will have no option but to move court to cancel his bail. So, we are sure that he will turn up this time,” the source added.
What are the tests a man has to go through to prove he’s impotent? Considering the sensitivity of the case, details pertaining to the panel of doctors who will be carrying out the tests on Nithyananda are kept highly confidential to check any attempts to influence them, sources said.
Normally, along with the blood samples, the bone marrow is also tested to assess the hormone levels.
But in Nithyananda’s case, it could go beyond this and several tests will be conducted over three-four days. These include: Blood test, supplemented with semen analysis, thyroid analysis and the use of erectionstimulating drugs. Nithyananda will first undergo a physical examination which will tell doctors if his sexual organs have been operated on. “Then, they will look at the possibility of erectile dysfunction. Then comes the semen analysis in which semen motility, semen count and semen appearances are tested. The sperm count and quality will throw light on whether the person is impotent. If he meets minimal standards in each of these tests, he will be considered potent,” Dr K Shastri, a city-based physician said. An analysis of the thyroid – a major regulatory hormone – will also throw light on his infertility. “Injecting erection-stimulating drugs is another important way to test if one is potent. An impotent person will never develop an erection even if he is injected with such drugs,” Dr CAshwath, a physician, said. Testosterone, FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone), LH (luteinizing hormone) are some other tests to determine impotence. The results of these tests will be produced in court and will determine the course of investigation into the case filed against him by onetime confidant Lenin Karuppan. “If the tests do not prove his impotence, Nithyananda will be in trouble,” another source added.

Bangalore, July 18: Self-styled godman Swami Nithyananda will undergo potency test on July 30, Crime Branch-CID sources said here.
In 2010, Swami Nithyananda had claimed that he was impotent and unable to perform sexual intercourse with any female.
Nithyananda’s former driver Karuppan had brought out an alleged sex CD of the swami with a Tamil female actor.
Not sure whther the godman is telling the truth or just trying to escape rape charges, the CB-CID has decided to subject him to medical tests.
The state police had written to the Victoria Hospital top brass to constitute a medical board to examine him.
“We do not want one doctor testing him and later Nithyananda countering it", said a police official.
Meanwhile, the Ramanagaram court, before which Nithyananda was produced, granted the CID the go-ahead for conducting the medical test.
It also gave the nod for a voice test to know if his voice matched with that in the audio samples submitted by Nithyananda’s detractors.
Nithyananda had submitted a medical report by a private doctor which claims he is impotent.
Meanwhile, the CID has decided not to arrest Nithyananda for conducting these tests. Once the board is formed, they will send him a notice asking him to voluntarily appear for the tests.
“If he fails, then the question of arresting him will arise,” sources said.
