Balesh Dhankhar

Balesh Dhankhar, a former Indian community leader and IT consultant, was sentenced to 40 years in prison after being convicted of drugging and sexually assaulting five women in Sydney, Australia. Once viewed as a dedicated member of the Indian-Australian community, he exploited his position by luring victims through fake job advertisements before committing his crimes. His actions, deemed premeditated and predatory by the court, led to his conviction on multiple counts of sexual assault.
