The high court had ordered the sect to pay for the losses of property caused by its followers after its head Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh was found guilty of rape on Friday.

Thirty-six people died and hundreds were injured in clashes that broke out after Singh was held guilty of sexually assaulting two female followers in 2002.

A court will announce Singh’s sentence on Monday.
