Renukaswamy Murder: Did Darshan Pay Rs 30 Lakh to Gang for Taking Blame? Chilling Details Emerge

Bengaluru: As investigations into the Renukaswamy murder case continue, chilling revelations have surfaced suggesting that Kannada actor Darshan allegedly wielded his influence to enlist a member of his fan club in the execution of the killing.  Renukaswamy, a fan of actor Darshan, was reportedly distressed over allegations tarnishing Darshan's reputation regarding an alleged extramarital affair involving Pavithra Gowda. Police are probing these claims, including allegations of lewd messages sent by Renukaswamy to Pavithra. For the unversed, Renukaswamy, who worked at an Apollo Pharmacy in Chitradurga, was found dead at Sumanahalli Bridge in Bengaluru.

Police to Seize Rs 30 Lakh

Sources have told Republic TV that police are set to seize Rs 30 lakh cash, allegedly given to accused Pradosh for disposing of the victim's body. According to sources, the seizure will occur after completing the necessary Panchnama procedure. Pradosh, who is alleged to have received the money from actor Darshan, was tasked with closing the case and disposing of the body.

Officials have said that Darshan, currently in custody, allegedly orchestrated a plan where he purportedly asked three people to take the blame for the murder in exchange for money.  

Further details reveal that Pradosh, also known for his roles in films alongside Darshan such as 'Brindavan' and 'Bulbul' has emerged as a key figure in the Renukaswamy murder case. His association with Darshan, and his involvement in the alleged disposal of evidence, have drawn intense scrutiny from officials.

Weapons Seized

Meanwhile, the investigation into the murder of Renukaswamy has taken a crucial turn with the seizure of various weapons allegedly used at the crime scene. Police recovered sticks, a belt, rope, rods, and several other items from the location of the murder. These items have been sent to the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) for examination, which aims to determine fingerprints and gather crucial forensic evidence linked to the murder weapons.
