The Karnataka police and the State administration must act with utmost sensitivity (an ability to understand what other people need, and be helpful and kind to them), professionalism, and swiftness to ensure the safety and the privacy of the women who have complained of multiple counts of rape and sexual harassment (behaviour that annoys or upsets someone) by Prajwal Revanna, the now suspended Janata Dal (Secular) party leader, the sitting Member of Parliament from Hassan, Karnataka, and grandson of former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda. While the State government acted promptly (quickly, without delay, or at the arranged time) by seeking cancellation of Mr. Revanna’s diplomatic passport, the Special Investigation Team (SIT), formed to inquire into the rape and sexual harassment charges, must ensure the videos of these allegedly forced sexual acts that show Mr. Revanna with several women are immediately taken down and the identities of the women protected. In the past few years, allegations of sexual misconduct by those holding high office have made distressing (upsetting or worrying) headlines. These are a reminder of the highly unequal power dynamics (forces that produce movement) and political influence that make it difficult to bring the perpetrators to account. The multiple complaints (a statement that something is wrong or not satisfactory) and charges against sitting Member of Parliament from the Bharatiya Janata Party in Kaiserganj, Uttar Pradesh, and former President of the Wrestling Federation of India, Brij Bhushan Saran Singh, serve as an example.
Survivors of sexual abuse rarely come forward to complain. And when they do, it is often when their trauma is unbearable (too painful or unpleasant for you to continue to experience), or when they have familial support, or if they feel confident that justice is likely to be served, while they seek privacy and safety. When a survivor files a complaint, it emboldens others to speak up, especially when it involves serial offenders (a person who is guilty of a crime). The police are finding it difficult in getting many of the women in the videos to register a complaint. Both Mr. Revanna and his father and sitting Member of the Legislative Assembly, H.D. Revanna from Holenarasipur in Karnataka, have been summoned (to order someone to come to or be present at a particular place, or to officially arrange a meeting of people) by the SIT — Prajwal Revanna on rape charges, and his father for kidnapping an alleged (to say that someone has done something illegal or wrong without giving proof) victim-turned-complainant. Given such grave charges, it would be in the fitness of things for both leaders to resign from public office till the investigation is complete.
