Darshan may remain in jail for over a year, fresh bail only under changed circumstances

Time of India2 days ago
Bengaluru: Legal experts say actor Darshan will have to stay behind bars for at least a year, with a fresh chance at bail arising only after the trial in the murder case begins — and only if there are "changed circumstances.
"
A team of lawyers representing the state, including Supreme Court senior advocate Sidharth Luthra, advocates Anil C Nishani and Chidananda DL, along with special public prosecutor Prasanna Kumar P and junior counsel Sachin C, secured the cancellation of bail for Darshan, co-accused Pavithra, and others.
"The only option left before Darshan now in the case is to face trial," Prasanna Kumar told TOI.

High court senior advocate Shyamasundar MS said the "changed circumstances" could mean a delay in starting the trial, collapse of key witnesses, or weakening of the prosecution's case.
Another possibility would be if Darshan develops a terminal or untreatable illness, or if the trial reveals insufficient material charges against him. However, with the SC directing that the trial be expedited, experts believe the proceedings will be lengthy but closely monitored, leaving the actor with limited options for early release.

He was cooperative: Cops
When police contacted Darshan and told him to appear before the investigating officer, he told them that he was in Mysuru and would return to Bengaluru. Accordingly, he came to his wife's flat in Hosakerehalli. Darshan initially requested police to allow him to surrender before the court. But when police explained the arrest memo to him, he agreed to go with them. A large number of fans gathered in front of the apartment and also near Annapoorneshwarinagar police station, climbing buildings, compound walls, and trees to catch a glimpse of the actor.

AI helps trace, nab truck driver involved in hit-and-run from UP

Nagpur: The Nagpur rural police used AI (artificial intelligence) through their indigenous tool, MARVEL, to apprehend a truck driver responsible for a hit-and-run accident on Nagpur-Jabalpur highway. The driver was tracked 700km away on Gwalior-Kanpur highway and was apprehended in less than a week on Saturday. On August 16, Deolapar police arrested Satyapal Rajendra, 28, from Farrukhabad, Uttar Pradesh, at his residence and seized the vehicle involved in the incident. The hit-and-run case gained widespread attention after a man's video of returning home on a bike with his wife's body tied to the seat went viral on social media. SP Nagpur (rural), Harssh A Poddar, said that the AI-driven technology calculated the truck's average speed as captured by a CCTV if it passed unhindered. "AI red flags if any anomaly is found in the calculated average speed and the actual one. We fed information into the system about a red truck which threw up results about five such vehicles. Subsequent investigations led the police to zero in on the accused who has now been apprehended," said Poddar, adding the vehicle plied between the Chandrapur-Kanpur-Delhi route. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Use an AI Writing Tool That Actually Understands Your Voice Grammarly Install Now Undo Gyarsi Yadav, 30, was killed and her husband, Amit, 35, injured after a truck with UP registration number hit their two-wheeler near Morphata Dargah under Deolapar police station limits on August 10.
