Kannada Actor Darshan Thoogudeepa Accused in Shocking Murder Case

The parents of Renukaswamy, whose murder case involves Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa, met Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah, expressing satisfaction with the police probe and requesting a government job for Renukaswamy's pregnant wife.

Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa stands accused in the alarming murder case of Renukaswamy. On Tuesday, Renukaswamy's parents met Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, voicing satisfaction with the ongoing investigation and requesting employment for their son's pregnant widow.

A total of 17 individuals, including Darshan and his associate Pavithra Gowda, face accusations. Police sources allege that 33-year-old Renukaswamy had sent obscene messages to Gowda, inciting Darshan's rage and leading to the murder.

Renukaswamy's body was discovered by a stormwater drain on June 9. Positive responses from Siddaramaiah's office indicated support for the family's job request.

Darshan and the other accused are in judicial custody. Reports suggest that a fan named Raghavendra lured Renukaswamy to a secluded shed under the pretense of meeting Darshan, where he was allegedly tortured and killed.

The investigation has reportedly gathered compelling evidence, including CCTV footage, potentially confirming Darshan's presence during the fatal assault.
