In a major development, JD(S) MLC Suraj Revanna has been arrested in Hassan on allegations of engaging in unnatural offences. According to police sources, the arrest follows accusations of sexual abuse made by a male party worker.

Booked under various sections of the IPC, including 377 (unnatural offences), 342 (wrongful confinement), and 506 (criminal intimidation), Revanna was remanded in judicial custody for 14 days by the 42nd Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Court in Bengaluru.
