Karnataka's Home Minister, G Parameshwara, announced that police action is imminent following a complaint lodged by actor-politician Ramya against threatening behavior from fans of actor Darshan. This follows Ramya's reaction to recent Supreme Court observations in a case implicating Darshan. The harassment began after Ramya highlighted the court's supportive remarks towards justice.
The minister emphasized the gravity of the issue, stating the need to put a stop to such incidents to prevent future occurrences. The police commissioner has been tasked with addressing the complaint and ensuring such behavior is curtailed. Ramya's complaint is part of a larger issue of online abuse targeting women, as highlighted by the State Women's Commission.
The backlash against Ramya began when she praised the Supreme Court as a beacon of hope in the Renukaswamy murder case, where Darshan is one of the accused. With Darshan's bail status recently reviewed by the court, tensions between fan groups and targets of online harassment have escalated, drawing urgent calls for intervention.
