Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court on Friday granted conditional interim bail to Bhavani Revanna, mother of Prajwal Revanna, in the abduction case linked to the alleged sex video scandal. The case has created a stir in the state. The court has granted her bail till June 14. Passing the order, the court directed Bhavani Revanna to appear for investigation by 1 pm on Friday. She has also been directed to cooperate in the investigation and has been barred from entering Hassan district, which is her native place and K.R. Nagar taluk in Mysore district, where the complainant in the abduction case hails.
The court has also directed the Special Investigation Team (SIT) not to detain her for investigation beyond 5 pm. Former Advocate General and SIT Special Public Prosecutor Ravivarma Kumar told the court that Bhavani Revanna should be handed over to the SIT as the case requires custodial interrogation. He also said Bhavani Revanna did not turn up for questioning even though SIT officials waited at his residence in Holenarasipur the entire day. Bhavani is accused of colluding with the accused in the sex scandal victim abduction case to try and prevent the arrest of his son, former JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna, who is currently in SIT custody.
