Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has written to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah requesting him to “extend all possible support to the victims” in the alleged sexual assault case involving JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna, who is now under an SIT probe.
“They deserve our compassion and solidarity as they fight their battle for justice. We have a collective duty to ensure that all parties responsible for these heinous crimes are brought to book,” he wrote in the letter.
In the letter posted on social media by Mr. Siddaramaiah, Rahul Gandhi attacked the BJP for giving the NDA ticket to Prajwal Revanna despite knowing “his history of sexual violence and the presence of videos filmed by the perpetrator.” He further said, “What is even more shocking is that despite these gruesome allegations being brought to the notice of the senior-most BJP leadership, the Prime Minister campaigned and canvassed for a mass rapist.”
