Actor Prakash Raj Granted Conditional Bail in Voter ID Case
Court Grants Conditional Bail to Prakash Raj
A local court in Bengaluru provided significant relief to actor Prakash Raj on Friday by granting him conditional bail in a criminal case. This case arose from a complaint alleging that he unlawfully possessed four voter identification cards registered in different locations.
Previously, a non-bailable warrant had been issued against Prakash Raj in connection with this matter. On Friday, he appeared before the 48th Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate's Court and requested the court to revoke the non-bailable warrant through his lawyer.
After considering the arguments, the judge granted the actor conditional bail, instructing him to deposit a cash bail amount of ₹4,000. During the hearing, Prakash Raj's attorney informed the court that the warrant had not yet been executed against his client.
The city court had issued the non-bailable warrant on June 12 based on a petition filed by advocate K. Dilip Kumar, which claimed that the actor's name was listed in four different voter lists across three states, including Karnataka.
