CCTV Footage: Renukaswamy's Last Videos Before Allegedly Killed By Darshan Aides Out

Two videos allegedly showing Renuka Swamy, killed by Kannada actor Darshan's aides, have surfaced online. These clips are the last known footage of him alive.

In one video, he is seen in a medical shop, and in another clip, he is riding his scooter. These are the two CCTV recordings of the deceased before he was kidnapped and killed.

On Saturday, Renuka Swamy was allegedly abducted by Darshan's aides from his medical shop in Chitradurga. He last spoke with his family around 6 pm before his phone was switched off. The actor's confidantes then kidnapped him from Chitradurga to Bengaluru.

Upon arriving in Bengaluru, Swamy was taken directly to Darshan's house and then locked in a shed in Kamakshi Palya.

There, he was brutally beaten with sticks, including assaults on his private parts. The assault resulted in his death. His body was then transported in an autorickshaw and a jeep before being dumped in a drainage in Summanahalli.

Reports indicate that Renuka Swamy had sent an obscene message to Darshan's friend, Pavithra Gowda, which infuriated the actor and led to the murder.

On Tuesday, Darshan and Pavithra Gowda were arrested, along with 11 others, including Pawan, Pradosh, Nandish, Keshava Murthy, Lakshman (Darshan's car driver), Raghavendra (a member of Darshan's fan association in Chitradurga), Deepak, Vinay, and Karthik. All were placed in judicial custody for six days by a Bengaluru court.

In the legal proceedings, Pavithra Gowda is identified as A1, Darshan as A2, and K. Pawan as A3. All suspects have undergone medical testing. The 13 individuals were presented before the judge on Tuesday evening, resulting in Darshan and the others being remanded to judicial custody.

Allegedly, Darshan devised a plan to frame three men for the murder. However, their deceit was exposed during intense interrogation.
