Earlier reports said he was arrested by a team in Kanpur and brought to Mathura.

 The holy Sri Krishna land was shaken up by the sexy-revelations, effigies were torched and hindutva elements demanded firm action against the "bhagwatacharya," who is a popular katha vachak, painter, a versatile talent who at some stage in the company of "phirangs" took to making porn clips for his foreign disciples who allegedly helped him market his dubious products through some websites. The case was being investigated by IT experts of the UP police.

 Vrindavan police confiscated movie camera, CDs, and hours of footage with kids, his wife and some foreigners.

 Mathura police said he had been challaned under 377 of IPC and 67B of IT Act.

Mathura police presented the arrested Swami before media persons.

 Rajendra said he had made the films and clips (stills) of his wife for his personal use. These were stolen and misused by some people. He told the police that he was a painter and an artist and he used his wife as a model to make paintings. These clippings have now been stolen and are being misused to trap him. His wife did not come before the media but kept sitting in the Mahila Thana.

 He categorically denied that the film clippings were for public use. Some of them were taken after his marriage and show him with his wife in intimate relations, he said.

 The investigating officer said some of the pictures show him engaged in unnatural sex which is offense, a few others show the couple with small kids in obscene acts. Both being cognisable offences, the two have been arrested, he added.

The Bhagwatacharya denied all the allegations and said the CDs had been doctored.

His wife Pankaj has already filed a complaint with the police against a firm of computer dealers whose technicians she said had played with the hard disc.

Mathura SP city Ram Kishore Verma told media persons that the arrested Bhagwatacharya along with his family members had been moving from Kanpur, Mathura to Ghaziabad avoiding arrest. On Monday the investigating officer Vivek Tripathi, CO Vrindavan, arrested him as soon as he entered his house.

A police team on the basis of information provided by Rajendra seized CDs and cameras from his relative's house in Ghaziabad.
