No SC bail for Prajwal in sex assault case

NEW DELHI: Supreme Court on Monday rejected bail plea of former MP and JDS member Prajwal Revanna in the rape and sexual assault case against him.

A bench of Justices Bela M Trivedi and Satish Chandra Sharma refused to grant him relief. Revanna approached SC after his bail plea was dismissed by Karnataka HC. Prajwal is the grandson of former PM and JDS patriarch HD Deve Gowda and son of former minister HD Revanna.

The HC had last month dismissed his plea. The SIT, which is probing four cases of sexual assault and harassment against him, had filed a 2,144-page chargesheet against him.
