The Karnataka government has approached the Supreme Court against the decision of the Karnataka High Court to grant bail to Kannada actors Darshan Thoogudeepa, Pavithra Gowda and five others in the Renukaswmy murder case..The plea was filed before the top court on January 6 through Krishna & Nishani Law Chambers..The dead body of 33-year-old auto-driver Renukaswamy was found on June 9. It is alleged that he died owing to injuries sustained in an attack carried out on Darshan's instructions.The actor allegedly called upon his fans to accost and kidnap Renukaswamy for making derogatory comments against Pavithra Gowda on social media.Darshan was arrested on June 11 this year. On October 30 last year, the High Court had granted him interim bail for six weeks on medical grounds. .Subsequently, it granted regular bail to Darshan, Pavithra and five other accused on December 13, 2024.Single-judge Justice S Vishwajith Shetty said that the prosecution had failed to provide grounds of arrest to the accused.The judge cited the Supreme Court’s judgement in the case of journalist and editor Prabir Purkayastha, where the apex court had clarified that grounds of arrest were different from the reasons of arrest and that it was necessary for the police to provide all arrested persons with grounds of arrest specific to their respective cases to give them a fair chance to defend themselves and seek bail.In the present case, the High Court noted that the prosecution had belatedly served grounds of arrest to the accused. Besides, it said that the grounds of arrest instead of containing details specific to each accused, were all identical.
