Chennai: As investigations into the alleged child sex abuse by Sushil Hari School founder Sivasankar Baba widens, the Crime Branch Criminal Investigation Division (CBCID) has planned to issue a lookout circular against the accused so as to prevent him from fleeing to a foreign country. A special team led by DSP rank officer has rushed to Dehradun where he was believed to be holed up.
Scores of complaints surfaced online after the alumni of the school revealed the innuendos and sexcapades of the school founder. Jurisdictional Mahabalipuram Police has received three complaints and cases have been registered against the same under various provisions of IPC as well as special laws including the POCSO Act. Earlier on Sunday, Tamil Nadu DGP JK Tripathy has issued orders transferring the probe to the CBCID.

It has emerged that the suspect has harassed the students through video calls. To make this stick, the police have planned to screen the devices including his laptop, mobile phones among others.
