Rape convict, ex-MP Prajwal Revanna's phone in Bengaluru jail had Netflix, WhatsApp, Insta, Prime Video

A video has surfaced showing former JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna, accused of rape, using his mobile phone inside his prison cell while dressed in personal clothes rather than the prescribed prison uniform. The exact date the footage was recorded remains unknown. The Crime Complaint Board (CCB) conducted a raid at Revanna's prison cell and recovered a mobile phone.

This discovery has raised concerns about how the phone ended up in the high-profile inmate's possession and whether prison security protocols were breached. Revanna, who represented Hassan in the Lok Sabha, is currently facing rape-related allegations in Karnataka. The case has garnered significant attention, with investigators delving into allegations and evidence associated with the registered charges against him.

The emergence of the video and the discovery of the phone are likely to intensify scrutiny over prison security measures and the treatment afforded to high-profile inmates in custody. Further details about the incident are awaited.
