Bengaluru, May 2: A day after Hassan MP Prajwal Revanna sought time to appear before the special investigation team (SIT) in connection with the alleged 'obscene video' case, Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara hinted at the possibility of an arrest of the JD(S) legislator if he fails to appear for questioning.

The Karnataka Home Minister while speaking to the media on Thursday said that a look-out notice has been issued in the case. "Look out notice has been issued.
