Suspended JD(S) leader and former MP Prajwal Revanna has been sentenced to life imprisonment by the Special Court for People's Representatives in Karnataka. The conviction stems from the rape of a 48-year-old domestic worker at his family’s farmhouse in Holenarasipura and later at his Bengaluru residence in 2021. The court imposed fines totaling ₹11.5 lakh, with ₹11.25 lakh directed to the victim. Revanna was booked under multiple IPC sections including 376(2)(k), 376(2)(n), and IT Act Section 66E. He has been assigned prisoner number 15528 and is lodged in a high-security cell. This is one of four sexual abuse cases against him, with more proceedings expected. (PC: Wikipedia)
