Balesh Dhankhar, a prominent figure in Australia’s Indian diaspora and founder of the Overseas Friends of BJP (OFBJP) Australia, has been sentenced to 40 years in prison for drugging and raping five women in a series of "highly predatory" attacks. Dhankhar lured victims under the pretense of job interviews in Sydney between 2018 and 2022. His crimes were uncovered through video recordings he kept. The court described him as a calculating predator who showed no remorse. Dhankhar must serve at least 28 years before being eligible for parole. His sentencing has shocked the Indian-Australian community.
