The Story in Brief
Actor Darshan Thoogudeepa has completed a year in custody in the Renukaswamy murder case. His wife, Vijayalakshmi, said in a social media post that the pain remained unchanged and that she had stopped explaining the situation to others, leaving it to time and God.
The Karnataka High Court on August 13 dismissed Darshan’s challenge to a trial court order concerning co-accused Pradosh’s request to become an approver. Justice M. Nagaprasanna said co-accused cannot oppose such an application at that stage. The order does not make Pradosh an approver. Darshan was arrested in June 2024, granted bail in December 2024 and taken back into custody on August 14, 2025, after the Supreme Court cancelled his bail.
The Indian Opinion
The most exaggerated version of this case treats a legal setback as proof of guilt, while the opposing narrative turns Vijayalakshmi’s distress into a substitute for courtroom evidence. Neither is sound. The High Court’s order concerns the procedure for considering an approver application, not the final verdict. The case should be judged through evidence and due process. The concrete test is whether Pradosh’s application is accepted and what evidence emerges at trial.
