The State government on April 27 announced a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe an alleged sex scandal involving incumbent Hassan MP Prajwal Revanna, grandson of former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda. He is the NDA candidate from Hassan in the Lok Sabha elections too.
A pen drive with thousands of sex videos featuring multiple women, allegedly recorded by the politician himself, had been doing the rounds ahead of elections in the constituency.
Meanwhile, sources in the Karnataka State Commission for Women said that a victim had come forward and lodged a complaint with them that multiple members of the politician’s family had sexually abused her and there was a threat to her life. The complaint has now been forwarded to the State police chief, sources said.
