Key Questions Answered
Pradosh, formerly the 14th accused in the Chitradurga Renukaswamy murder case, turned approver to record a confessional statement before the court after his petition was accepted. He served as a key bridge between Darshan and the other accused, allegedly handling financial transactions and assisting in evidence destruction.
No, despite multiple applications filed by Darshan's lawyers in the trial court, High Court, and an unlisted Special Leave Petition in the Supreme Court, the requests to halt the process were rejected. Pradosh successfully began recording his confessional statement before Judge Sujatha M Sambrani in the 59th CCH Court.
Judge Sujatha M Sambrani oversaw the recording of Pradosh's confessional statement in the 59th CCH Court between 12 PM and 2 PM, with a lunch break before the session resumed past 3 PM. Because the process was not fully completed on September 28, Pradosh was instructed to appear before the court again the following morning.
