Rape-accused Karnataka MP Prajwal Revanna has been remanded to police custody till June 6 following allegations of sexual harassment and criminal intimidation. The Special Investigation Team (SIT) sought 14-day custody of Revanna, who was produced before Justice KN Shivakumar of the Special Court of People's Representatives in Bengaluru earlier today. Revanna's advocate, Arun, has been granted permission to meet him between 9:30 - 10:30 am while in SIT custody.
Revanna, who returned to India from Berlin, Germany, nearly a month after leaving the country on a diplomatic passport, was immediately taken into custody. Earlier, the SIT arrested two prime accused, Naveen Gowda and Chetan, in connection with the case. They were arrested when they appeared before the High Court seeking anticipatory bail. The arrested individuals allegedly distributed pen drives containing videos of Prajwal Revanna sexually assaulting women.
