Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara on Wednesday said the state government would give its consent if the police feels the need to reopen the case of death by suicide of a man who was working at leading Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa's farmhouse at Anekal in Bengaluru.

Darshan was arrested on June 11 for the murder of his fan Renukaswamy who allegedly trolled the actor's friend Pavithra Gowda in obscene language. In all, 17 arrests have been made in the case.

According to the police, Sridhar S died by suicide in April this year, and in a note and also in a video he said that he is responsible for his death and that no one should be held accountable for it. However, police are probing if there is any connection between the death of Sridhar and the Renukaswamy murder case.
