Darshan gets relief from court. Darshan Granted Six-Week Bail for Medical Surgery in Renuka Swamy Murder Case.
Kannada film star Darshan, facing allegations in the murder case of his fan Renuka Swamy, has been granted temporary relief from custody. The Karnataka High Court today granted him six weeks of interim bail to undergo a medical surgery.
Darshan, who was arrested on June 11th for his alleged role in the murder, was initially denied bail by the sessions court in September. He subsequently appealed to the High Court, citing a medical condition requiring surgery. He claimed to be experiencing numbness in his feet and sought permission to undergo the procedure at a private hospital in Mysuru, stating he would bear the expenses himself.
The state government submitted sealed medical reports from doctors at Ballari Central Prison and a neurologist from a government hospital in Ballari in response to Darshan's petition.
After reviewing these reports, Justice S. Vishwajith Shetty of the High Court granted Darshan the six-week temporary bail to receive medical treatment.
The actor is expected to return to custody after the surgery. The investigation into the murder of Renuka Swamy continues.
