On her connection with Vicky Goswami, she added, “I have no connection with D (drug) world as I never met these people. Yes, I got connected with Vicky Goswami……in 1996 my spiritual, journey started and a guru came into my life during that time.”
“Vicky called me when he was in jail in Dubai to come and meet him.. and I when met him…I spent 12 years…’mai dhayn tap aur puja path is mein agarasar ho gayi’ (I got busy with meditation, penance, and worship), and when he came out of jail in 2012, all my desires were finished by that time… either to fall in love or get married… nothing was left and he came out of jail and I had decided until he would come out, I won’t go back to India. Then he went to Kenya and I came to India for Kumbh mela in around 2012-2013. I went straight to Allahabad (now Prayagraj) from Dubai for ten days and then went back to Dubai,” she concluded.
Mamta revealed that Vicky went back to Kenya; he has also been accused there; she is not in touch with him and they last contacted him in 2016.
