Asaram's trial has been a virtual ‘who’s who’ in the legal industry, with costliest lawyers such as Ram Jethmalani, Salman Khurshid & UU Lalit coming to the guru’s defence.
The deceased, a resident of Bimaur village, was reported missing Thursday. After the victim's family filed a missing complaint, a team was deployed to investigate the matter, the ASP said.
The top court posted the matter for further hearing after two weeks. Sai, who is also a self-styled godman, is serving life sentence in a rape case filed by a former devotee.

Ushinor Majumdar in his book 'God of Sin' traces the empire of Asaram Bapu and his son Narayan Sai, shedding light on everything wrong with self-styled godmen.
The Supreme Court bench dismissed Asaram Bapu's bail plea and said the lower court will proceed with the trial in a sexual assault case lodged against him in Gujarat.
