Bengaluru: Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar on Wednesday welcomed the Karnataka High Court’s decision to grant an interim six-week bail to Kannada actor Darshan.
“I will not question the court’s decision. The government respectfully welcomes the decision,” Shivakumar said while speaking to reporters.
Darshan was arrested on June 11 following the alleged gruesome murder of Renukaswamy, a native of Chitradurga.
Initially lodged at Bengaluru’s Parappana Agrahara, Darshan was shifted to the Ballari Jail after allegations of preferential treatment emerged following a leaked photograph.
