Prajwal taken to his house for an inspection

Bengaluru, NT Bureau: The Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing allegations of sexual abuse and rape against suspended JD(S) leader and former Hassan MP Prajwal Revanna, on Friday, took the accused to his house in Hassan for an inspection.

The action by the police team comes days after a special court in Bengaluru remanded Prajwal to judicial custody till June 24. Prajwal was arrested in connection with a case registered against him in Holenarasipura in Hassan district on April 28. He has been booked in three cases of sexual assault.

The cases came to light after pen drives containing explicit videos allegedly involving Prajwal, were circulated in Hassan, ahead of the Lok Sabha elections on April 26.

He had left for Germany on April 27, a day after Hassan went to elections. The police arrested Prajwal after he landed here from Germany.

The SIT will again subject Prajwal to medical examination. During the hearing, the former MP had reportedly told the court that the medical examinations was causing him embarrassment.
