Sharing obscene videos in Prajwal Revanna scandal a 'big sin': High Court
Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court, during a hearing on the Prajwal Revanna sex scandal case, remarked that sharing obscene videos linked to the scandal is a serious offense. The court expressed concern, stating that the act of sharing a pen drive containing explicit videos has insulted the victims.
The single-judge bench, led by Justice M Nagaprasanna, was hearing a petition filed by former BJP MLA Pritam Gowda, who sought to quash the complaint lodged against him for allegedly distributing the pen drive at the Bengaluru Cyber Crime station.
Senior advocate C.V. Nagesh, representing Gowda via video conference, stated that his client was ready to cooperate with the Special Investigation Team (SIT) and had no objections to the continuation of the investigation.
The court questioned whether Gowda had cooperated with the inquiry, to which Nagesh responded that no notice had been issued by the SIT. The bench criticised both the handling of the case and the lack of action by the state government, stating that the case had been exaggerated and mishandled.
The government's special prosecutor, Prof. Ravivarma Kumar, informed the court that a previous interim order related to the case had been dismissed. After hearing the arguments, the court adjourned the matter for further consideration.
