The Story in Brief
Karnataka minister Priyank Kharge has warned that no police officer, from constable to additional director general of police, will be shielded if found guilty of misconduct in the Prajwal Revanna mobile phone recovery case. "Suspensions have already been made," Kharge said, according to Deccan Herald. The row erupted after police recovered mobile phones from Revanna during a raid in Hassan, triggering allegations of evidence tampering.
Opposition parties have accused the state government of shielding the former MP, who faces multiple sexual assault charges. Kharge's statement comes amid mounting pressure on the Congress-led government to prove transparency in the investigation. The case is being monitored by the Karnataka High Court, which had ordered the phone seizure.
The Indian Opinion
The usual din of selective outrage is deafening. When a Congress minister speaks tough, supporters cheer; when the opposition cries cover-up, their flock nods. Both sides ignore that courts and not politicians will decide this. The real test is whether the high court’s oversight yields a clean forensic report on those phones. Until then, every suspension is theatre, every accusation is noise.
