"The Much Blessed" Sorin Turc dissociates himself from MISA and guru
erd0gangAs it is known, in late 2023 Sorin Turc was indicted in Paris for "complicity to aggravated rape, abuse of weakness, human trafficking and organized gang kidnapping" and is suspected of being the "lieutenant" of Gregorian Bivolaru, the MISA leader who sexually exploited his female followers.
At the instructor's home, police found 66,410 euros in cash, 3 silver bars and 56 gold leaves. He also regularly deposited around €2,000 a month into his accounts and owned 21 vehicles, including four Mercedes, sometimes used to transport victims.
On 4.02.2025 Le Parisien published the article "Secte internationale de yoga : un violoniste soupçonné d'être le bras droit du gourou accusé d'exploitation sexuelle". In English: "International yoga sect: a violinist suspected of being the guru's right arm accused of sexual exploitation".
The full article can only be read by subscribers. In the online preview the gist is revealed as a lure.
The article reveals that on January 30, 2025, Sorin Turc, a violinist by profession and coordinator of MISA branches in France and Switzerland, was heard before the investigating chamber.
In addition to the charges listed above, he is also suspected of sexually exploiting several female followers for his own interests.
As expected, the violinist denied everything.
He never belonged to MISA. He only met Bivolaru in person once, in 1999, at a conference, when they took a photo together.
The houses in which the women were kept would not belong to him. He owns only 5% of the shares in the Villiers house and is a member of an LLC in the Vigneux house.
The above-mentioned sums that he deposited monthly in his bank account are said to be money from his family and from the sale of cars and musical instruments that he refurbishes.
He "sought" to strike a chord with the magistrate by bringing up his 88-year-old mother, who could not manage without him.
More: "Music is everything in my life and I think about it all the time. I need to get my soul and my existence back."
He admitted only that he is president of a yoga association, but it has only three members (including him).
The psychiatric expert consulted by the court found the man not dangerous, but noted in his report that he lacked empathy.
The judge said simply: "He has no sense of guilt and is a liar with a talent for dissimulation".
Sorin Turc asked to be released, but the magistrate objected.
"He could flee as he has considerable resources and has been involved in this criminal organization, which operates throughout Europe."
So the "Much Blessed One" on MISA TV remained in jail.
"On the case's substance, the judge is currently hearing the six women who filed complaints against the guru and his organization to determine the level of influence over them and the acts they were forced to perform under their authority."
