Actor Darshan stands accused in connection with the murder, and authorities are proceeding with the case based on gathered evidence. According to reports, members of Darshan's fan association in Chitradurga allegedly orchestrated a deal amounting to ₹30 lakh to ensure that certain individuals surrendered to the police without implicating Darshan in the crime.

Details emerged that Darshan's girlfriend and relatives were involved in brokering this agreement. Four individuals, including Darshan's fan association president in Chitradurga, surrendered to the police under these circumstances. It was later disclosed that two of them received ₹5 lakh each, with promises of additional payments upon certain conditions, purportedly from Darshan's acquaintances.

The police, during their investigation, uncovered evidence of financial transactions related to this arrangement. In a remand application submitted to the court, the police highlighted the issue of monetary inducements provided to the accused parties.

Dr Parameshwar reiterated the government's commitment to non-interference in legal matters, emphasising that justice will be served as per the law's provisions. The investigation into the Renukaswamy murder case remains ongoing, with further actions expected based on the unfolding facts.
