The verdict in one of the four cases of sexual abuse and rape against Prajwal Revanna, former Hassan MP, is expected to be delivered on August 1, 2025. The trial in the case concluded on July 18.
The case concerns a 48-year-old woman who was working as a help at the family’s Gannikada farmhouse in Hassan and was allegedly raped twice, once at the farmhouse and then at his house at Basavanagudi in Bengaluru during the COVID lockdown period in 2021, and the act recorded by the accused on his mobile phone.
She was allegedly abducted at the behest of Prajwal’s parents, former Minister H.D. Revanna and Bhavani Revanna, to prevent her from testifying against their son after the scandal broke out in April 2024.
She was rescued from a farmhouse in K.R. Nagar by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) led by B.K. Singh, Additional Director-General of Police (ADGP), Criminal Investigation Department (CID).
