\"Karnataka<\/div>\n
JDS Hassan MP Prajwal Revanna<\/a>, embroiled in the state\u2019s infamous obscene video scandal, was arrested by a women-led team of IPS officers just as he landed in Bengaluru in the early hours of Friday. The MP, who had fled the country after the scandal broke out, is expected to be produced before the Special Court of People’s Representatives later in the day. <\/p>\n

The Special Investigative Team (SIT<\/a>) probing the case has issued a notice to his mother Bhavani Revanna, and will be questioning her on Saturday. <\/p>\n

State home minister G Parameshwara asked the victims in the case to come forward and testify before the SIT. “We will give them all necessary security,” he said. Meanwhile, the arrested MP’s lawyer, advocate Arun G, requested that Revanna Jr<\/a>. not be put through a “media trial,” and assured that he was cooperating with the investigation. <\/p>\n

Revanna, the grandson of former prime minister HD Deve Gowda<\/a> and son of senior JDS leader HD Revanna, had released a video message earlier this week, saying he would surrender before the SIT. The Congress<\/a>, he alleged, was framing him as he was growing politically significant. <\/p>\n

Revanna Jr., who is the NDA<\/a> candidate from Hassan, found himself at the centre of a political storm<\/a>, when pen-drives containing sex videos<\/a> allegedly involving him were distributed in his constituency days before the LS polls there. <\/p>\n

His MLA father, Revanna, who represents Holenarasipur<\/a> in the assembly, has been battling a case of alleged abduction<\/a> of a sexual assault victim from her home in Mysuru district. He is currently out on bail.The SIT had arrested two people in connection with the case on Tuesday. Naveen Gowda, 34, and Chethan Kumar B C, 32, were taken in while they were leaving the Karnataka High Court<\/a> following a hearing of their anticipatory bail pleas. They, along with two others, had been missing since April 23 when election officials filed a complaint in Hassan over the distributed pen drives.<\/div>\n
