A complaint was filed by her son and accuses one Satish Babanna of taking her away on the directives of JD(S) MLA HD Revanna to prevent the woman from testifying against Prajwal. “Babanna dropped my mother at our house on the morning of polling day. He told my parents not to tell anything to the police if they came to our house and threatened us that we will be booked in a case and asked us to alert him if the police came by,” the complaint said.
As per the complaint, he had initially convinced the woman to accompany him under the pretext of a summons from Bhavani Revanna — the wife of HD Revanna. He allegedly returned on April 29 to forcibly take the woman away on his motorcycle.
The video clip, which has gone viral on social media, reportedly shows Prajwal Revanna in a compromising position with the victim. The incident has sparked outrage and demands for action against the lawmaker.
Prajwal Revanna is the grandson of former Karnataka Chief Minister H.D. Deve Gowda and the son of former Minister H.D. Revanna. He is a member of the Janata Dal (Secular) party.
The police are investigating the case and have launched a search for the missing woman.
