The Karnataka High Court has deferred actor Darshan's bail hearing to October 28, amidst a tense legal battle. Presiding over the hearing, Justice Vishwajit Shetty of the single-judge bench directed Darshan's legal team to present medical documentation to support claims of the actor's serious back pain, which allegedly requires urgent surgical intervention.
Darshan, who faces charges in the high-profile Renukaswamy murder case, initially sought bail at the trial court level but was denied. His counsel, BV Nagesh, fervently argued before the high court for the necessity of bail on health grounds, emphasizing the actor's need for immediate surgery.
Amidst mounting legal challenges, Darshan's family, including his wife Vijayalakshmi, recently visited him at Ballary jail. As Darshan awaits his next court date, another suspect in the case, Deepak, successfully secured bail, adding a layer of complexity to the ongoing judicial proceedings.
