Court Convicts Prajwal Revanna
A special court in Bengaluru has convicted former MP Prajwal Revanna on charges of sexual assault and rape. The ruling pertains to a case filed at the Holenarasipura rural police station in Karnataka's Hassan district. The court had completed the hearing for the rape case on July 18 and reserved its judgment. The sentencing is scheduled for Saturday, August 2.
Revanna is the main accused in four criminal cases filed last year, following the emergence of over 2,000 explicit video clips on social media, allegedly depicting the sexual exploitation of multiple women. The first complaint was lodged in April 2024 by a woman who worked as a domestic helper at his family's farmhouse. She accused Revanna of repeatedly raping her since 2021 and threatening to release abusive videos if she disclosed the incidents.
