Sydney serial rapist Balesh Dhankhar guilty of attacks on five women

A District Court jury in Sydney’s Downing Centre on Monday found the politically connected predator lured five women into a web of lies, paralysed them with drugs and hoarded trophies of his callous assaults.

Dhankhar led the Overseas Friends of the BJP, an official group supporting India’s ruling party, a position that allowed him to rub shoulders with the most powerful in Sydney’s Indian diaspora.
