In a significant legal development, the Karnataka High Court has granted interim bail to actor Darshan Thoogudeepa, who is implicated in the Renukaswamy murder case. The decision, made on medical grounds, allows him to undergo spine surgery.
Justice S Vishwajith Shetty presided over the bench that granted Darshan a six-week interim bail for necessary medical treatment. This came after an earlier bail plea was dismissed by a sessions court, prompting Darshan to seek relief from the High Court.
Renukaswamy, a fan of Darshan, was found murdered in June. Accusations involve an alleged conspiracy by multiple individuals, including Pavithra Gowda. The case involves serious charges, as medical reports examined court state Renukaswamy's death resulted from shock and hemorrhage due to multiple injuries.
