New Delhi: Responding to Karnataka’s Special Investigation Team (SIT) regarding a blue corner notice issued against JDS MP Prajwal Revanna, The International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) on Monday said that all 196 member countries were alerted to identify and report if Prajwal Revanna is spotted at any port in their jurisdiction, according to News18.
The Karnataka government issued a Blue Corner Notice on Sunday against Prajwal Revanna, who is facing allegations of sexual abuse by his staff members.
A Blue Corner Notice is issued by the international police cooperation body to collect additional information from its member countries about a person’s identity, location or activities about a crime. The notice was issued after the 33-year-old Hassan MP reportedly flew to Germany soon after the Karnataka State Commission for Women chairperson Nagalakshmi Chowdhary wrote to the CM to order a probe into the sexual allegations against Prajwal.
Last week, Justice Santosh Gajanana Bhat’s bench of People’s Representative Court denied Prajwal’s anticipatory bail application. Earlier, his MLA father and son of former Prime Minster HD Deve Gowda, HD Revanna was remanded to Karnataka SIT custody in a kidnapping-related sex scandal case.
His arrest came after the kidnapped victim was rescued from Revanna’s close assistant Rajasekhar’s farmhouse in Kalenahalli, Hunsur Taluk after the SIT conducted the rescue operation to find her, the police said. The son of a woman who worked at the Revannas’ house for nearly five years filed the abduction case. He alleged that his mother was kidnapped from her home on April 29 by Satish Babanna a relative of Revanna.
The Karnataka Sex Scandal case pertains to explicit video clips allegedly involving the 33-year-old Prajwal, grandson of JD(S) patriarch and former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda, which went viral on social media.
