Supreme Court reserves verdict on plea to cancel Darshan's bail, will pronounce it on this day
Renukaswamy Murder Case: The Supreme Court has reserved its verdict on the bail plea of actor Darshan in the Renukaswamy murder case. It will be pronounced tomorrow on Thursday.
The Supreme Court will deliver its judgment tomorrow on Thursday on the Karnataka government's appeal to revoke Kannada actor Darshan's bail in the Renukaswamy murder case. A bench of Justices JB Pardiwala and R Mahadevan had reserved their verdict on July 24 after hearing arguments by both parties.
The bench was hearing a petition filed by the state government against the Karnataka High Court's December 13, 2024, order granting bail to Darshan and the co-accused. Actor Darshan, along with actress Pavitra Gowda and several others, is accused of kidnapping and torturing a 33-year-old fan named Renukaswamy, who allegedly sent obscene messages to Pavitra.
The police alleged that the victim was kept in a shed in Bangalore for three days in June 2024. There he was tortured, and his body was recovered from a drain. On the petition of the state government, the apex court on January 24 issued notices to actress Pavitra Gowda and others in the case.
