Prajwal Revanna, Accused in Obscene Video Case, To Leave For India On Thursday: Report

Obscene Video Case: Prajwal Revanna is likely to land in Bengaluru in the early hours of May 31.

New Delhi: Prajwal Revanna, the suspended JD(S) leader and Karnataka MP, accused in the obscene video case, will leave for Bengaluru from Munich in Germany on May 30, PTI quoted official sources as saying. The sources added that Prajwal is likely to land in Bengaluru in the early hours of May 31.

Sources further stated that the officials of the Special Investigation Team (SIT), which is probing the case, are maintaining vigil at the Kempegowda airport and will arrest the 33-year-old MP as soon as he lands.

Notably, Prajwal had left India in April after explicit video clips showing him allegedly sexually abusing multiple women started surfacing on social media in Karnataka.

Earlier in the day, the Special Investigation Team (SIT) officials arrested two prime accused in connection with the Prajwal Revanna obscene video case, police stated. The arrested have been identified as Naveen Gowda and Chetan.

The SIT probing the sexual harassment case against Prajwal Revanna on Tuesday arrested two accused for allegedly distributing pen drives containing obscene videos.

According to police sources, the accused were arrested when they appeared before the High Court seeking anticipatory bail.

Arrested Chetan Gowda and Naveen Gowda allegedly distributed pen drives containing videos of former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda’s grandson Prajwal Revanna sexually assaulting women.

Earlier, Prajwal Revanna, in a self-made video released on Monday, said that he will appear before the Special Investigative Team (SIT) on May 31 for questioning.

Revanna said that his trip was pre-planned as there was no case against him when the voting was held in Karnataka on April 26 for the general elections. He also alleged political conspiracy against him as he was “growing in politics.”
