"I want to convey to the state and the nation that, it has come to the notice of the court that the kidnap case lodged against H.D. Revanna was a political conspiracy and hence, the bail petition was upheld by the court," he claimed.
He said that they had argued that the victim in this case was not kidnapped, and found near a vegetable market and have videos of this. "The court maintained that at this stage, it won't consider the matter," he added.
However, the court, considering the lapses in the FIR against Revanna, granted him bail, he claimed.
