FSL confirms obscene videos on mobile phone seized from Prajwal‘s jail cell

Bengaluru: Hundreds of video files, including alleged obscene and vulgar videos, have been recovered from a mobile phone seized from the cell of former JD(S) MP, Prajwal Revanna, who is convicted in a rape case, and another undertrial prisoner at Bengaluru Central Prison, police said on Saturday.

The mobile phone was sent to the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) for examination, and the report has confirmed the presence of the video files, police said.

The Parappana Agrahara police are investigating the case after the mobile phone was seized during a raid at Bengaluru Central Prison on August 11. The device was subsequently sent to the FSL for examination after Prajwal Revanna and undertrail prisoner Pratapa Rai, who are kept together in the cell, allegedly refused to provide the password despite repeated requests from the police.

According to the investigation, 173 files were found on the mobile phone. Among them were three alleged obscene videos involving Prajwal Revanna. The device also contained several other vulgar and obscene videos, along with movie clips in Kannada, Hindi and English, web series and other video content.

Police are also examining the communication records of the mobile phone.
