As per the report, the court had weighed and heard both sides' arguments carefully before reaching the verdict of granting bail. Before the bail grant, Darshan had already got out of prison based on an interim bail of 6 weeks.
The interim bail was awarded to the actor on grounds of back injury and request for the need of medical attention. The actor had been out on bail on the grounds of a surgical procedure, but now the Kannada star has been discharged without any surgery taking place.
As per a report by News18, after being discharged, Darshan went directly to the City Civil Court to complete the necessary legal formalities. As per the bail requirements, the accused must appear before the judge and sign certain conditions.
After signing the necessary documents, the actor is expected to return to his wife’s home. According to the same report, the actor was said to have his surgery on December 11, 2024, but was apparently postponed due to high blood pressure. The doctor had also advised that actor could face health issues if the surgery was not conducted. However, Darshan decided to get discharged instead and went ahead to fulfill the formalities of regular bail.
