Prajwal Revanna's Brother Suraj Arrested For Allegedly Sexually Assaulting Man


A case was filed against Suraj Revanna based on a complaint registered by the 27-year-old party worker who accused the JD(S) leader of sexually assaulting him at a farm house in Karnataka's Hassan district on June 16. Janata Dal-Secular leader Suraj Revanna, the elder brother of Prajwal Revanna who is facing sex crimes allegations by multiple women, has been arrested allegedly for sexually assaulting a male party worker.

A case was filed against Suraj Revanna based on a complaint registered by the 27-year-old party worker who accused the JD(S) leader of sexually assaulting him at a farm house in Karnataka's Hassan district on June 16.

Suraj Revanna, meanwhile, has refuted the charge and alleged that the man filed a false complaint against him after he refused to pay him ₹ 5 crore. Suraj Revanna's friend Shivkumar had also yesterday filed a police complaint, alleging that the JD(S) worker had approached him earlier this month and demanded ₹ 5 crore, threatening that he would file a sexual abuse case against Suraj Revanna if his demands were not met.

Shivkumar said the man initially approached him seeking help in finding a job. Shivkumar gave him Suraj Revanna's phone number and asked him to contact Suraj. But after failing to get work, he began threatening Shivkumar and Suraj, the complaint states. Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara said the case would be investigated further by the CID.

Suraj's arrest comes days after former JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna was detained. The 33-year-old grandson of JD(S) patriarch and former chief minister H. D. Deve Gowda unsuccessfully tried to retain his seat from Hassan assembly constituency in the recent elections.

The sexual abuse case came to light after a USB stick containing an explicit video purportedly featuring Prajwal Revanna was circulated in Hassan ahead of the April 26 Lok Sabha elections.
