The complainant is the son of the MLA’s former maid, who was allegedly ‘raped’ by his son and Hassan MP Prajwal Revanna.
Trouble seems to be mounting for former Minister and JD(S) leader H. D. Revanna. He has now been booked for kidnapping one of the alleged victims of sexual abuse by his son Prajwal Revanna, who is the MP of Hassan and the candidate of the BJP-led NDA in this Lok Sabha election.
The alleged victim earlier worked as a maid in H. D. Revanna’s household for six years. A video of her being ‘raped’ by Prajwal Revanna is in circulation, police sources said.
The FIR was registered hours before the anticipatory bail plea of H.D. Revanna comes up for hearing in the Special Court for People’s Representatives in Bengaluru on May 3. Mr. Revanna was earlier booked for sexual harassment based on the complaint of another former maid in his house. He has sought anticipatory bail in that case. He skipped the summons to appear before the Special Investigation Team (SIT) on May 2 for questioning.
At present, police teams are making all-out efforts to track down the ‘kidnapped woman’ . She was allegedly kidnapped to prevent her from testifying against Prajwal Revanna, who allegedly raped her, police said.
A complaint was lodged by the woman’s 20-year-old son at K. R. Nagar Police Station in Mysuru district on the night of May 2 alleging that his mother, who figures in a video of being ‘raped’ by Prajwal Revanna despite pleading with him to spare her, was coerced into accompanying Satish Babanna on the night of April 29. She has been incommunicado since then.
The complainant stated that his mother worked as a maid at H. D. Revanna’s house in Holenarasipur and in their farm for six years. She left the job and returned to her village three years ago.
According to the complaint, Satish Babanna is a resident of K. R. Nagar in Mysuru. He is known to the family. He came to their house some days before the Lok Sabha election (on April 26), and took his mother to Holenarasipur saying H.D. Revanna’s wife Bhavani Revanna has summoned her.
