BENGALURU: Karnataka HC on Friday sent notices to respondent parties in response to two petitions concerning an abduction case involving JD(S) MLA HD Revanna. While Revanna is seeking quashing of an FIR registered against him in KR Nagar police station for a woman’s abduction, in a separate petition, SIT has sought cancellation of bail given to the MLA in the same case.
Seeking cancellation of bail granted by special court on May 13, special public prosecutor Prof Ravivarma Kumar submitted that the very interpretation of IPC’s Section 364A (abduction) by special sessions judge is defective. “Whether the order granting bail is perverse, arbitrary or not, victim was kidnapped & if this is allowed to happen, no case can be registered,” Kumar argued.
“Since an arguable case is made out by pointing out a kind of interpretation on the provision of section 364A of IPC as reflected in page 15 of the impugned order, post (the matter) immediately after service of notice,” Justice Dixit said while adjourning the hearing.
