Deve Gowda, who is celebrating his 91st birthday on Saturday, told media persons that Prajwal Revanna should not be spared.Former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda on Saturday said action must be taken as per the law against his grandson and JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna over sexual abuse allegations.
Deve Gowda, who is celebrating his 91st birthday on Saturday, told media persons that Prajwal Revanna should not be spared. However, he alleged that cases against Prajwal Revanna’s father and JD(S) MLA H D Revanna were false.
“H D Kumaraswamy has already spoken on many occasions on behalf of our entire family about Prajwal Revanna and H D Revanna. It is the responsibility of the government to take all possible steps against Prajwal Revanna under the purview of the law. But now the people also know that false cases were registered against H D Revanna,” Deve Gowda added.
Deve Gowda had not stepped out of his Bengaluru residence since April 27. He had earlier campaigned for BJP-JD(S) alliance Hassan candidate Prajwal Revanna.
On April 26, he cast his vote in Paduvalahippe village under Hassan district. The very next day, Prajwal Revanna left the country as the alleged sexual abuse videos started to emerge.
On May 4, H D Revanna was arrested in a kidnapping case related to the sexual abuse allegations against Prajwal Revanna. The former was released on bail on May 14.
“None of us in the family have any objection over this (accusations against Prajwal Revanna)… Many people are involved in this episode and I don’t want to take any names. All those involved must be punished and the women victims must get justice,” Deve Gowda remarked.
