A Ramanagaram court has refused to hand over Nithyananda to the Puducherry police who sought his custody in connection with a cheating case filed against him by a devotee.

Magistrate (in-charge) Nagendra on Wednesday did not entertain an application filed by a police team, stating that day-to-day hearings were going on in the case in Ramanagaram.

Hearing of a bail application of Nithyananda will come up before the Karnataka High Court here on Thursday.
