The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Devaraje Gowda who has been arrested in relation to a sexual assault case is a key suspect for the SIT over the sharing of Prajwal Revanna’s videos that created a political uproar across India. Upon his police custody coming to an end, the 5th additional civil court in Hassan provided the SIT custody of the suspect until 24th May.
