FIR filed against Prajwal's brother over unnatural sex

HASSAN: A day after JD(S)MLC Suraj Revanna's aide Shivakumar HL accused Chethan KS, 27, of trying to extort money over a sexual abuse charge, the latter filed an FIR, accusing Suraj of committing unnatural sex on him at Suraj's Gannikada farm in Holenarasipura on June 16.
Following the FIR, Suraj has been summoned by CEN police in Hassan Town and is likely to be arrested.
Hassan SP Mohammed Sujeetha confirmed to STOI that Chethan's complaint was first received through email and the same was forwarded to the Holenarasipura rural police station that took up the case.
Suraj, though, has refuted the charges, saying that the case registered against him is a political conspiracy.
He expressed his confidence in the legal system and said he would let the investigation take its own course.
Suraj promised political career if I lived with him: Chethan
The FIR was registered against Suraj under IPC sec 377 (unnatural sex), 342 (wrongful confinement) 34 (common intention) and 506 (criminal intimidation).
In his complaint, Chethan said he was an active JD(S) worker and had met Suraj at Kollangi village, during the last LS poll campaigns. "We exchanged phone numbers. Later, he told me to meet him at his farm in Gannikada on June 16. I met policemen at the entrance, who allowed me in when I showed Suraj's message. As soon as I entered Suraj's room, he got up, touched me inappropriately and gave a peck on my lips. Suraj promised to help me grow politically if I lived with him. He then undressed me and committed unnatural sex despite my objections, even as he threatened me. When I told Shivakumar about it, he tried to lure me with the promise of a job and money from Suraj," he said.
