Kannada actress Pavithra Gowda, the prime accused in the Renukaswamy murder case, was arrested by the Bengaluru Police on Thursday. According to ANI, the police arrested her after the Supreme Court cancelled the bail granted to her by the High Court in the murder case.
The Supreme Court overturned the Karnataka High Court's decision, ruling that Darshan's bail could affect the trial and the witness. Moreover, it stated that the Karnataka High Court's order "reflects mechanical exercise of power." The statement further added, "suffers from perversity and it went into witness statement which is the only prerogative of the trial court."
According to Bar and Bench, the Supreme Court state that, "Justice Mahadevan has pronounced a very erudite judgment. It is ineffable. It conveys a message that however big the accused may be, he or she is not above the law. It contains a strong message that the justice delivery system at any level should ensure at any cost that rule of law is maintained."
Earlier on Thursday, the Supreme Court cancelled the bail granted to Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa and six others by the Karnataka High Court in Renukaswamy murder case. For those who may not know, the Renukaswamy muder case is about the death of a 33-year-old resident of Chitradurga whose body was found near a stormwater drain in Bengaluru in June 2024.
