'Kept Calling Me To His Room…': Woman Tells Cops In Prajwal Revanna 'Sex Scandal' Case
The woman complainant also named HD Revanna, Prajwal's father and Deve Gowda's son, as an accused in the case

The woman who filed a complaint against JD(S) chief and former prime minister HD Deve Gowda’s grandson Prajwal Revanna claimed that after four months of starting her job, he repeatedly called her to his room.

“After four months of joining, Revanna kept calling me to his room. There were six women workers in the house and everyone said that they were scared when Prajwal Revanna came home. The male workers in the house also alerted the women workers to be careful,” the woman, who worked as a house help, stated.

The woman complainant also named HD Revanna, Prajwal’s father and Deve Gowda’s son, as an accused in the case.

She mentioned how Revanna, who is an MLA from Holenarasipura, would call the women to the store room and ‘touch them’ when his wife was not around the house.

“Whenever (HD) Revanna’s wife wasn’t there, he used to call the women to the store room and touch them while giving them fruits. He used to remove saree pins and used to sexually assault women,” she added.

The woman also stated that Prajwal behaved inappropriately with her daughter during a video call, Hindustan Times reported.

“My daughter blocked his number after repeated calls,” she added.

Prajwal, 33, is the incumbent Hassan MP and is also the NDA candidate from Hassan in the Lok Sabha elections, which went to polls on April 26. The JD(S) joined the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in September last year.

According to a report by The Indian Express, the woman complainant revealed to the police that she chose to step forward and name Revanna and Prajwal after watching online videos of other victims sharing their experiences. Detailing her case, she claimed that the abuse happened between 2019 and 2022.

Her complaint, along with others’, and the FIR filed against Prajwal will be forwarded to the SIT led by Additional General of Police Bijay Kumar Singh. The team comprises IPS officers Suman D Pennekar and Seema Latkar.
