Former MP Prajwal Revanna loses VIP cell privileges after phone, pen drive found in prison
Prajwal Revanna will now live alongside 20 other prisoners and share a single toilet. He has also been ordered to wear the prescribed prison uniform.
Former MP Prajwal Revanna, serving a life sentence for rape, has lost his VIP cell privileges following the discovery of a mobile phone and pen drive in his prison cell. The devices, found during a raid by the Central Crime Branch, contained obscene videos. Revanna, who lived apart from the general prison population for two years, has been moved to a general cell and will now share it with 20 other inmates.
He has also been mandated to wear the prison uniform and work in the library. The move came after an inquiry by prison authorities, who are investigating how the devices entered the prison and if any officials were involved. Home Minister Priyank Kharge assured that whoever is responsible, regardless of their rank, will face consequences.
