The pregnant wife of Renukaswamy, the 33-year-old murdered allegedly by Kannada film actor Darshan and his associates in June, gave birth to a baby boy on 16th October in Chitradurga. The deceased man’s father said, “My son has come back.” Sahana, wife of Renukaswamy, was five months pregnant when he was kidnapped and killed in Bangalore for allegedly sending lewd messages to Darshan’s long-time actress-partner, Pavithra Gowda. His body was found near a stormwater drain in Sumanahalli on June 9.
On October 14, a Bangalore court rejected Darshan and Pavithra’s bail pleas.
