Pastor Bajinder Singh, known for viral 'Mera Yeshu Yeshu' video, has been booked for sexual harassment in Punjab's Jalandhar district.
A woman filed a complaint alleging that Singh took her mobile number and started sending messages after she and her parents began visiting the church in October 2017.
From 2022, Singh allegedly made her sit alone in a cabin in the church on Sundays and allegedly hugged and touched her inappropriately, she told the police.
The police have registered a case against Singh under sections 354 A (sexual harassment), 354 D (stalking), and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the Indian Penal Code.
