Hassan JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna, who is facing a probe by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) for the alleged sex scandal involving him, on Wednesday sought seven more days to appear before the agency. The day also saw Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah writing to Prime Minister Narendra Modi seeking his intervention to “ensure the swift return of the absconding Member of Parliament to face the full force of the law”.
Mr. Siddaramaiah has asked Mr. Modi to cancel the diplomatic passport of Prajwal Revanna, who has “fled the country”, “sensing the impending nature of police case and arrest” in the “serious case of alleged sexual exploitation of innumerable women”.
