Prakashanand Saraswati failed to show up to his sentencing hearing on March 7, 2011.

On March 4, 2011, 82-year-old Prakashanand Saraswati was convicted of sexually assaulting two young girls back in the ‘90s.

After so many years, it seemed that the two victims would finally get some justice for being molested by the spiritual leader of the Barsana Dham ashram in southwest Austin.

But on March 7, 2011, U.S. Marshals say the Hindu guru, also known as Shree Swamiji, didn't show up to his sentencing hearing. Saraswati, was sentenced in absentia to 14 years in prison on each of the 20 counts he faced for abusing the two girls, who are now 27 and 30 years old.

Now it’s a matter of finding him.
