Swamy Nityananda, better known as the sex swami, today lodged a complaint against the Kalanidhi Maran, Sun TV network chairman and brother of the former textiles minister Mr Dayanidhi Maran, to Chennai police that the network had morphed his videos and photos and those of movie artiste Ranjitha linking them to sexual encounters.

The complaint comes a day after Dayanidhi Maran had resigned his job as the textiles minister due to his involvement in the 2G Spectrum scam.

The representatives of the Bangalore based Nityananda Dhyana Peetam met the City Police Commissioner JK Tripati in Chennai and handed over the complaint on  behalf of the tainted Swami.

“The Sun TV telecast a false footage to tarnish the image of the Swamiji and the Peetam,” said the complaint which also implicated the Sun TV’s chief operating officer Mr Hansraj Saxena. Mr Saxena was already arrested based on a cheating complaint by a distributor in Tamil Nadu.
