PANAJI: Goa Police have registered an FIR against two individuals linked to spiritual organisations after a complaint alleged that an event they announced was offensive to the Catholic community.
The offence was registered on November 24, 2025 at 13:56 hrs following a complaint by Cyril A. Fernandes, president of the Catholic Association of Goa. According to the complaint, the accused—described as the Founder of Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh and the Founder of Osho Ludhiana Meditation Society—allegedly acted with common intention to organise an event scheduled from December 25 to 28, 2025 and titled “Tales of Kamasutra and Christmas Celebration.”
Fernandes alleged that the event’s title and its circulation with explicit sexual references amounted to outraging the religious sentiments of the Catholic community by associating Christmas with inappropriate and sacrilegious content.
Police said the precise time and location of the alleged act on November 23 remain unspecified. The case has been handed over to PSI Manjunath Naik, who is conducting further investigation.
