Supreme Court Upholds Anticipatory Bail To Prajwal Revanna's Mother

The Supreme Court on Friday refused to set aside the anticipatory bail given to Bhavani Revanna, the mother of suspended JD(S) leader and rape accused Prajwal Revanna, in a kidnapping case while dismissing the Karnataka government's plea.

In a setback to the Karnataka government, a bench of Justices Surya Kant and Ujjal Bhuyan took into account that the chargesheet had been filed in the case and refused to interfere with the Karnataka High Court order.

During the hearing, the state government counsel claimed the mother was directly involved in allegedly procuring women for her son.
