SC dismisses Ktka govts plea against bail to mother of Prajwal Revanna

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Friday dismissed a plea by the Karnataka government against anticipatory bail granted to Bhavani Revanna, mother of former JDS MP Prajwal Revanna, alleged to have sexually exploited a number of women as purportedly revealed in such videos.

A bench of Justices Surya Kant and Ujjal Bhuyan observed sometimes, people in politics are entangled in such cases.

The court noted the respondent is a woman of about 55-56 yrs of age and the allegation pertained to abetment of offences by the son.

The bench said it was not disputed that principal accused has been arrested and subjected to custodial interrogation. It is also admitted that charge sheet has been filed in this case. Therefore no case to interfere with anticipatory bail was made out, the bench added.

The Karnataka government challenged the High Court's order in June, this year allowing regular anticipatory bail to Bhavani Revanna in the abduction case lodged with K R Nagar police station in Mysuru.

While issuing notice on July 10, the court had noted there was not much materials against Bhavani in the statement of the victim recorded before a court under Section 164 of the Criminal Procedure Code.

Bhavani had moved the HC after the special court declined her relief. She had earlier appeared before the SIT to answer the questions raised in its probe in the matter.
