Probe Team Summons Deve Gowda’s Grandson in Deepening Karnataka Sex Scandal Row

Prajwal Revanna, the sitting MP from Karnataka’s Hassan, has reportedly left for Germany amid a row. On Tuesday morning, the JD-S suspended Prajwal Revanna, the sitting party MP and Lok Sabha candidate from Hassan, after the Congress government in Karnataka formed the SIT to probe allegations of sexual abuse against him.

A notice has also been issued to JD-S MLA H.D. Revanna, the father of Prajwal Revanna who is the second accused in the case.

The notice has directed both Prajwal Revanna and his father H.D. Revanna to be present before SP Seema Latkar within the stipulated period.

The National Commission for Women (NCW), which took cognizance of the case on Tuesday, sought a report within three days from the Karnataka Police. In a letter, NCW Chairperson Rekha Sharma urged Karnataka DGP Alok Mohan to take prompt and decisive action and swiftly apprehend the accused, who has fled the country.

However, the family of Prajwal Revanna maintains that he will appear before the investigating officer whenever he is summoned. *(Except for the headline, this story has not been edited by NDTV staff and is published from a syndicated feed.
