One month after leaving the country, Hassan MP Prajwal Revanna announced that he will be appearing before the Special Investigation Team on May 31st to address allegations of sexual abuse made against him. In a video statement, he expressed his belief that these accusations are part of a political conspiracy and have caused him to fall into a state of depression.
Prajwal reassured the public that he has faith in the judiciary and is confident that he will be able to prove his innocence in court. He apologized to his family, including his parents, grandfather Deve Gowda, uncle H D Kumaraswamy, as well as the people of the state and his party workers. He also explained that he had not previously disclosed his location while abroad, but he is now ready to come forward and cooperate with the investigation.
Despite seeking time to respond to the SIT notice through his lawyers, Prajwal claims that Congress leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, began discussing the situation at public meetings the very next day. This, along with allegations of a political conspiracy in his constituency of Hassan, led to his isolation and depression. He asked for forgiveness from the public and urged them not to mistake his actions as an admission of guilt.
Prajwal went on to explain that he had planned his trip abroad before the SIT was formed and before the allegations were made against him. He only left the country a few days after the elections and was unaware of the accusations until they were reported on a news channel. He also mentioned that his diplomatic passport is being investigated and that he has not received any official communication from the government.
The scandal has caused a rift between the ruling Congress and the BJP-JD, with each party demanding different courses of action. The Congress government has formed a Special Investigation Team to handle the case, while the BJP and JD, who are NDA partners, have called for the case to be handed over to the CBI. The scandal came to light when explicit videos involving Prajwal were allegedly circulated in Hassan just before the Lok Sabha polls.
Prajwal's grandfather Deve Gowda has urged him to return to the country and face the probe, stating that there will be no interference from the family. His uncle Kumaraswamy has also repeatedly appealed for him to return and face the investigation. The JD party has suspended Prajwal following the allegations.
In conclusion, Prajwal has announced his intention to cooperate with the investigation and prove his innocence. He believes that the accusations against him are part of a political conspiracy and has asked for the public's forgiveness. The situation has caused a rift between political parties and has led to investigations into Prajwal's diplomatic passport.
