Bengaluru police have claimed that Darshan has confessed to have given Rs 30 lakh to co-accused Pradosh to dispose Renukaswamy’s body.

“Darshan, who is accused number 2 (A2) in the case, has in his voluntary statement to police said that he had given Rs 30 lakh to Pradosh (A14) to dispose of the body, and for the expenditure that would cost for persons to carry out this task, and to ensure that his name doesn’t come out anywhere,” a police official said.

“From the spot of the crime, things such as lathi and wooden logs used for the alleged assault have been recovered along with water bottle, blood stains and material evidence, and DVR containing the CCTV footage,” the official said, adding, “blood stains were also found on the vehicle allegedly used for disposing of the body.” 

According to the autopsy report, Renukaswamy’s death was caused due to shock and haemorrhage as a result of multiple blunt injuries he sustained. “Viscera samples have been sent to the Forensic Science Laboratory for further analysis,” he said.
