Hassan sex scandal: Prajwal Revanna to appear in court today following arrest
Bengaluru: Speculation mounts as Hassan MP Prajwal Revanna is expected to make a court appearance today following his arrest on charges of 'sexual assault and rape'. Sources from the Special Investigation Team (SIT) suggest that preparations are underway to bring him before the court for further proceedings.
Prajwal is expected to be presented before the court, where the evidence gathered in the ongoing investigation will be presented. SIT authorities have indicated that they will request custody of the accused for interrogation, citing the necessity for further questioning.
The MP, who stands as the primary accused in a case filed for rape and sexual assault in Holenarasipur Town and CID stations, had been evading the authorities for approximately 35 days by staying abroad.

Plea in Madras HC calls for SIT/ED/CBI probe into Gautam Adani's indictment in US bribery case
Chennai: A plea has been filed in the Madras High Court seeking the establishment of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) or directions to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) or Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to probe the corruption charges against Indian businessman Gautam Adani. The plea follows Adani’s indictment by the United States Department of Justice in the Eastern District of New York on bribery charges.
Filed by Advocate and Desiya Makkal Sakthi Katchi President ML Ravi, the plea alleges that Adani, along with other businessmen and power distribution companies in India, was involved in a scheme to bribe Indian government officials. The bribes were reportedly aimed at securing lucrative solar energy contracts with Indian entities. According to the US Department of Justice, Adani’s group paid USD 265 million in bribes, primarily to officials in Andhra Pradesh, to secure contracts with state electricity distribution companies between 2001 and 2023.
Ravi criticised the Indian authorities for their silence on the matter, despite the exposure of the corruption by foreign agencies. He argued that the lack of action by Indian investigation agencies undermines public trust and hinders national development. He called for a thorough investigation to uncover the full extent of the allegations, asserting that public officials had abused their power for personal gain, in violation of their duties.
