Darshan Thoogudeepa is in jail for murder of fan

On June 9, the body of 33-year-old Renukaswamy was found near an apartment in Bengaluru's Kamakshipalya area. When the police investigated the area around the crime scene, they saw Darshan and Pavitra leaving the crime scene in the CCTV footage. From 11 pm to 3 am, both their mobile numbers were active in the same area. After this, Darshan and Pavitra were arrested on June 11.

Why was Renukaswami murdered?

Actually, deceased Renukaswamy was a fan of Darshan Thoogudeepa. In January 2024, Kannada actress Pavitra Gowda celebrated her 10th anniversary with Darshan. Darshan was already married, due to which his relationship with actress Pavitra Gowda had come into controversy.

Renukaswamy, who considered Darshan an idol, was very angry with this news. He was continuously sending messages to Pavitra and threatening her, asking her to stay away from Darshan. Initially Pavitra ignored his messages, but later Renukaswamy started sending objectionable messages and threatening her. When Pavitra complained about this to Darshan, Darshan with the help of his associates called Renukaswamy to a godown, where he was tortured and murdered. According to the confession of the accused, after the murder, the clothes of Darshan's companions were stained with blood. He went to the nearby Reliance store and bought new clothes and changed there. In this case, 19 people including Darshan and Pavitra are behind bars.

Many officers were seen smoking in jail, suspended

Darshan Thoogudeepa is currently lodged in Ballari jail, although earlier he was in Parappana Agrahara Central Jail in Bengaluru. A few days ago, a picture of Darshan from Parappana jail sitting with some people in the jail garden and smoking cigarette and tea had gone viral. After the picture went viral, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah ordered to shift them to another jail and demanded strict action from the DGP, after which 7 officers were suspended.
