This is the continuation to our earlier post "HOW
DID LEF SPIRAL DOWN TO ITS PRESENT STATE?" The decline happened as a result of Joshua Daniel's denial of the truth. JD never liked feed back, especially feedback that questioned his appointment of some of his henchmen. Immanuel Chakravarthy, who was handpicked by Joshua Daniel and Lily Daniel to head the finances of LEF will not be allowed even to be peon in any ethical religious organization. Bro. Sathy as we know vehemently opposed the appointment of IC as the financial head of LEF. He presented his case as to why IC should not be entertained in LEF in such an emphatic way that an intelligent person like Joshua Daniel should have thanked Bro. Sathy for his advice and kept IC as far as possible from administartive roles in LEF.
Here is the letter that Bro.Sathy wrote to IC both pleading IC to stop hurting LEF people and warning IC of the consequences.
Please note that the copy of this email was sent to all LEF board members including Joshua Daniel.

Immanuel,
For my conscience sake I decided to write this letter again. As before I have documented many things in this letter to you. I sent one on Aug 6. I had sent it to lefihq@bsnl.in. I had given 7 days to respond to me.
Since you did not responded to my mail and my pleadings I have come to the conclusion that I will take it up with the State authorities. I have approached the Inspector General of Registration as many of your actions have been illegal and against Societies act.
I again repeat, you have been doing too much evil to the simple, poor, sincere people of LEF including widows, the old and those who sacrificed much for the poor. You have done too much evil in these past 8 years, especially. I cannot remain as a silent spectator when you hurt the poor.
Yours truthfully,
Satyanandan
-----------------------------------------------------------
In Government Service
1. You have been working for the Government for many years now. First is the Sugar corporation and then in the Central Secretariat of TN
2. At Sugar Corporation you started collecting information from Govt records to use it against your colleagues in Govt service. You told me that you took copies of others’ leave letters etc.
3. At the Secretariat you tried to remove your leave letter from the records after completing your leave. You wanted to sign as of you had attended office. Your IAS boss caught you and threatened to suspend and dismiss you for forging records.
4. At the Secretariat you were suspended for some months and were not allowed to attend office. But you went around the City pretending that you were attending office. Once again you showed everyone your lack of integrity.
5. I am not sure what other forgeries and lies you indulged in at the secretariat; probably your colleagues there can say a lot. My knowledge is from your own mouth, as told personally to me (whenever you got into trouble)
6. You are a crorepati and more. For the past many years you have been involved in huge personal property transactions. To my knowledge you have not disclosed them to the Govt as required by law
7. How much of that is ill gotten money and from LEF Church?
8. Being a Govt Servant you have handled LEF money as Member-finance, you operated illegally without authority from Govt, at LEF Church from around 2000. You had told me you did not have Government permission
9. I am afraid you have brought all your evil that you practiced elsewhere into the LEF Church, it is unacceptable. Someone from the Govt ought to investigate.
At LEF Church:
I have documented the following things to show that we have exhausted all steps within our means inside the Church to stop you from doing things against the law
1. As stated above you have been a functionary at LEF Church without authorization and also indulged in illegal activities in LEF Church
2. You were picked up by a police van from LEF Church on the allegation of falsifying accounts and not paying the due amount to a contractor.
3. It is common knowledge that you forge minutes of meetings, forge signatures with impunity at LEF
4. You have been sending fake or forged faxes and emails from HQ
5. With the help of Gunalan PA at HQ both of you have deleted emails, destroyed letters that have been sent to LEF HQ. Destroying of mails is illegal and may be criminal as it is tantamount to destroying evidence
6. You and those who are partners in crime with you have intercepted mails, broken into other people’s Inbox as a routine. Please note that it is illegal, I had told Gunalan so
7. A lot of payments are made and received off the record
8. You have consistently falsified accounts at the LEF Church
9. You have brought in a regime of commission agents. A check all the bills will show that many bills are inflated
10. A system of getting quotations was setup in 2001, three different teams to purchase and cross check purchases. You scuttled it and that has caused great loss to LEF, for some to swindle money’ by inflated bills and commissions
11. You have been buying people’s silence by paying them up
12. You have involved LEF in property deals either in black money transactions are selling much below market value, in spite of protests from godly people
13. I have had too many complaints that the amount signed in a voucher was of higher value than the amount received, it is evident you cook books. An audit of the books and an enquiry will show the truth.
13. I also want to know what are the registered accounts operated by LEF and what are the accounts outside the legal framework
14. There have been reports of many lakhs worth of drafts missing and you scuttled any meaningful enquiry.
15. Do not keep Tuck-shop at the retreats with lakhs of sales, water sales etc off the records. It leads to mishandling of money. Keep all sales on record.
16. At Bookstall also see that all sales are on record do not falsify accounts. Or else there are off the record illegal payments and those who supply books on credit are not paid on time.
17. LEF bank accounts and the accounts you have submitted to authorities may not tally
18. When your father is still alive you forced him to part with his property and there were people ready to take brokerage to do it for you
19. You have made your Father, --who has been a good man, a great officer and a self made man--to countersign LEF Cheques cumulatively for huge amounts. Commonsense tells that that is not acceptable. Your father is too old; he has lost his memory why do you want him to countersign LEF cheques. You are capable of much evil and why do you want to involve your Father in his old age. You must bear the consequences of your evil ways and not your Father. In his present mental condition he cannot see through your evil designs and he cannot be held personally responsible. Stop this.
20. God does not need brokerage and commission to build His Church. No one can be asked to part with their money or property in the Name of God. All giving has to be entirely voluntary and not coerced.
21. No one must dare to indulge in criminal activities in the Name of God. God will not be quiet
22. Of late there have been attempts to plan, execute, harass and grab the property and money of widows, the poor, the old and helpless. It is criminal to do it in the Name of God. Stop this. LEF people used to care for the poor and helpless.
23. Many of the above are criminal activities indulged in by you , although you know the law
24. You need to restitute to the people concerned for all the loss you caused by your criminal activity, as far as I know you deserve to go to Jail for taking into the path of lies and falsification of accounts. LEF leaders were known to be men of integrity and sacrifice.
25. You and your partners in crime have completely subverted LEF constitution. We had men of impeccable integrity. This letter is also a warning to all your partners in crime
26. You have tried to usurp the authority of Brothers in the centers who have faithfully labored for years with great sacrifice. You have no legal, moral or spiritual authority to do so. Anyone who does this within the Church will be answerable to God for his presumption
27. You have forgotten that leadership within the Church is to love, serve and sacrifice for others not exploit the poor and helpless and the voiceless
Me-Satyanandan:
Over 20 years ago I had repeatedly told you not to meddle with Government records, it is unethical and illegal-
1. I asked you to apologize to the IAS officer who caught you removing your own leave application from the files at the TN secretariat
2. Because you were not caught and punished there you continued your evil in Church
3. At LEF Church I caught you with forged letters with forged signatures. I tore them up and warned you not to do it. But I am afraid you continued to do it. I had complained to the leadership to no avail, this was around 7 years ago
4. Whenever I saw or heard about your lying, falsifying accounts, off the record payments of LEF money I protested. I did all a decent Christian or a human being should do. You never responded.
5. Once when I caught you doing evil, you told me not to interfere and then you had the audacity to offer me twenty thousand a month to keep quiet. Soon after that I quit all positions at LEF HQ. Some other righteous man would have beaten you up.
6. I knew pretty well that you would forge signatures, the minutes of meetings and falsify accounts. So I refused to be part of any committee.
7. I had set a condition to the leadership that you and others who routinely lie and falsify accounts should not deal with money or the students for the first two years at BG Bible College. History shows that your entry had set a bad example and many seem to have chosen to follow your wrong example.
8. I wonder what more I can do to help you stop your evil ways. I am left with no other option than to appeal to the Honorable Chief Minister
What do I want from you?
1. I want a clean LEF as it was 40 years ago. No less, nothing more. Do not try your evil games any more.
2. You cannot bring the evil that is outside, in society, into the Church
Why am I doing it now?
1. Seven years ago I repeatedly warned you about your criminal tendencies and activities and told you not to do it within LEF Church
2. I did bring it to the notice of the leadership, to my knowledge nothing was done.
3. Those who benefited from your false accounting and forgeries kept Mum, it suited them.
4. I know that no decent human being would want to be a party to your illegal or criminal activities, by being a beneficiary in a corrupt system
5. I had repeatedly told that There is God in Heaven, seated on His Throne, you made light of it
6. I repeatedly warned you that God would judge you if you touched the least of God’s people, you refused to fear God all these years. You refused to listen till now
7. Now you have become too bold in your wickedness to perpetrate all this evil within the Church, owned by Jesus Himself
8. Of late I notice that you are harming the widows, the old people, the poor and helpless. Remember God Himself is the Father of the widows, orphans, the stranger and the poor.
9. I kept quiet for a while when you worked against godly people; I knew God would protect them. Now that you do it against the helpless people, I cannot remain silent. I want you to know that well.
10. My conscience and the Spirit does not allow me to be silent.
11. Finally, in God’s time table and in His scheme of things, for everything there is a Time.
12. I know well that your cup of iniquity is full and only you shall drink it. The Just, The Righteous and the Holy One will do it to protect His people from a wicked man like you. I also know that it is His job, not mine.
13. I am a mere human being whose breadth is in his nostrils. But I will not go to my grave with guilt on my heart that I did not do my best to stop you from eating up innocent people. You are one of those wolves eating up or trying to eat up God’s people. I know well that in society as a whole and in many other places you would have been severely beaten up by people you harm. In Church, people do not do so and so people like you have become too bold to do evil
14. I always hesitated to make these things public. But now I want to put this in writing. Ultimately truth will come out, God will chase you, and then where will you hide?
15. Some of us have repeatedly pleaded with you not do this kind of evil within the Church. We have exhausted all the decent methods we know to sort things within LEF Church, to make you stop your evil. We have not succeeded I do not want to feel that I failed to explore other ways of stopping you by nice talk and appeal to you. You seem to feel that you are Omni-potent.
16. Therefore I have appealed to the Most Honorable Chief Minister to stop you and bring some integrity into LEF Finance. There are law enforcement authorities under him who can better deal with people like you.
Yours truthfully,
Satyanandan

Unless JD and clan had their own self interests served by IC, there is no logical explanation as to why anybody with reasonable discernment would not act when he or she sees an email like this. Having done his part of warning all the concerned leaders of LEF, Bro. Sathy walked out of LEF as he believed firmly that he cannot be a beneficiary in a corrupt system. He walked out from what was supposed to be the most prominent place in LEF- "standing next to JD as a translator" He also walked out of the Bible college as he saw another major discrepancy. Bro. Sathy found out that 40 or so Bible college students in Beulah Gardens were made to illegally steal electricity. They were made to run a loop wire that by passed the electric meter so that the usage of electricity is not recorded on the meter. This ensured that LEF is not charged for electricity usage.This is not only unethical but also criminal. To his utter dismay, when Bro. Sathy stopped the Bible College students from doing this crimial activity, Bro. Sathy was directed by Joshua Daniel not interfere in all these matters but only teach the boys to "Obey Joe." Please bear in mind that these Bible College students were being trained to become LEF evangelists. Why wouldn't these men when they get their own centers steal God's money? After all, Joshua Daniel trained them in "Bible College" to become thieves. Having decided that there is no future to a church that steals electricity, Bro. Sathy walked out of LEF work and embarked on a challenging but fulfilling work of helping to rescue and rehab minor girls and women who are stuck in some of the notorious Red light areas of the country.
Now the rogue son of Joshua Daniel, the John Daniel tells people the Bro. Sathy did not obey his dad and that's why he left LEF. John Daniel, do you have the guts to tell people that Bro. Sathy did not obey your dad as your dad was coercing Bible college students to doing illegal things such as stealing electricity? This is also to the so called "evangelists" of LEF - What did you all do when you saw the wicked ways of IC and how he was destroying God's work? If 10, 20, 30, ...50 of you joined hands and stood against the evil in LEF, would LEF be in the situation that it is in today? How can you justify your silence in these matters? Do you think if all the LEF preachers complained to the government about the suspected sexual abuse cases in LEF, LEF would have become an harbor to immorality? Are there not enough men in LEF who can drive this corrupt and rogue Daniel family and their spineless stooges out of LEF? Wake up, my dear friends and join hands to book these criminals.
Here is the letter that Bro.Sathy wrote to IC both pleading IC to stop hurting LEF people and warning IC of the consequences.
Please note that the copy of this email was sent to all LEF board members including Joshua Daniel.
