Newly surfaced videos have exposed shocking disparities in treatment of inmates at Bengaluru's Parappana Agrahara Central Prison, revealing preferential treatment for high-profile criminals while denying basic facilities to popular Kannada actor Darshan.
Jail Authorities Deny Basic Facilities to Actor
According to reports emerging on November 8, 2025, prison authorities systematically denied basic amenities to actor Darshan while simultaneously allowing numerous high-profile inmates to enjoy luxury lifestyles behind bars. The situation came to light through multiple video evidences that have circulated among officials and media personnel.
The revelations show a clear two-tier system operating within the correctional facility, where ordinary prisoners face strict regulations while select inmates receive special privileges without any apparent restrictions.
Luxury Life for Hardened Criminals Exposed
Multiple video recordings obtained by investigators show hardened criminals with serious charges enjoying what appears to be comfortable living conditions that contradict standard prison protocols. These high-profile inmates have been documented accessing facilities and amenities that far exceed what regular prisoners experience.
Meanwhile, Kannada actor Darshan, whose case has drawn significant public attention, has been subjected to standard prison conditions with limited access to basic facilities that are routinely denied despite his celebrity status.
Growing Concerns Over Prison Management
The exposed disparities have raised serious questions about the management practices at Parappana Agrahara Central Prison and whether prison authorities are implementing different standards for different categories of inmates. The videos specifically highlight how certain prisoners appear to be living in luxury conditions that undermine the very purpose of incarceration.
Prison officials have yet to provide a comprehensive explanation for the visible discrepancies in inmate treatment. The situation has prompted calls for immediate investigation into prison management practices and potential reforms to ensure uniform treatment of all prisoners regardless of their background or celebrity status.
The timing of these revelations, coming to public attention on November 8, 2025, has created significant pressure on prison authorities to address the growing concerns about preferential treatment within the correctional system.
