Kirad said that on the night of August 25, Gurmeet did not eat anything but sat on the floor and cried all night, imploring his destiny.

"He didn't eat anything. Just had water from Bisleri bottle, later some milk, tea and biscuits," the Dalit leader added.

Speaking on Gurmeet Ram Rahim's dwellings in the prison, Kirad said that he was not given any special treatment but was kept in a separate space due to imminent threat to his life.

"Prisoners are very angry with Ram Rahim for the violence that was instigated in his name in Punjab, Haryana and parts of other states after his verdict," the Dalit leader explained.

He can be attacked, Kirad reiterated, over the issue of growing resentment against the Dera chief in the prison.

Gurmeet Ram Rahim has been given two quilts like all the other inmates and no special arrangements have been made for his 'stay' in the Sunaria Jail .

Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim has been sentenced to 20 years of rigorous imprisonment for raping two minors 15 years ago. Ram Rahim has been handed two sentences of ten years each for the two counts of rape.

Special CBI judge Jagdeep Singh said the two sentences of 10 years each will run consecutively, and not concurrently.
