Priyank Kharge accuses BJP of conspiring to send Prajwal Revanna abroad
Bengaluru: Minister Priyank Kharge has accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of orchestrating a plot to send Janata Dal (Secular) MP Prajwal Revanna abroad in connection with a recent sex scandal. Addressing reporters on Friday, Kharge criticized the BJP's handling of the situation and the focus on the leak rather than the incident itself.
Kharge stated, "Instead of discussing the whereabouts of the person involved, the focus has shifted to who leaked the video. Moreover, JDS leaders are only discussing the irrelevant issues."
He further alleged that BJP has been involved in a conspiracy to send Revanna abroad, even before the filing of the FIR. "It is known that Home Minister Amit Shah has said Prajwal should not be given a ticket in the Lok Sabha elections. This plot to send him abroad was orchestrated by the BJP. Devaraj Gowda has confirmed that the BJP was aware of all this," Kharge said.

New Delhi (PTI): An Enforcement Directorate team undertaking searches in a cyber fraud linked money laundering case was allegedly attacked here on Thursday, officials said.
The agency has registered a police FIR about the incident that took place at a farmhouse that was raided by ED officials in the Bijwasan area of the national capital that falls under the Kapashera police station in southwest Delhi.
An Enforcement Officer (EO) suffered minor injuries during the attack. He is continuing with the searches after he was given first aid, officials said.
The probe pertains to a case against the PYYPL app.
The alleged accused in the case, including Ashok Sharma and his brother, allegedly attacked the ED team. The situation is under control and searches are going on, the sources said.
The search operations, according to sources, has been launched after the ED got inputs from the I4C and the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) about cyber crimes like phishing, QR code cheating, part time job fraud leading to fraud with many people.
It was found that money earned through this cyber fraud was being layered through as many as 15,000 'mule' accounts and withdrawn using debit and credit cards.
Using these cards, it was found, money was remitted to top up virtual accounts on UAE-based Pyypl payment aggregator and subsequently funds were used from Pyypl to buy crypto currency.
The network was being run by some Chartered Accountants (CAs), the sources claimed.
