Deve Gowda and younger brother of Prajwal Revanna, the prime accused in the sex video scandal.
A male JD-S activist from Arakalagudu town in Hassan district had made allegations of sexual abuse by Suraj Revanna.

The accused had gone to the farmhouse on June 16 to request a job. The complainant said that after meeting Suraj Revanna at the farmhouse, the accused made allegations of sexual abuse.
