Now, H. D. Revanna booked for kidnap of former maid who was allegedly raped by his son Prajwal

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.
