Jailed Kannada superstar Darshan pleaded before the trial court in Bengaluru Wednesday for an additional blanket, stating that the cold has made it difficult for him to sleep.

Darshan was produced before the CCH-57 court via video conference for the trial proceedings. He told the court that due to the cold, he is unable to sleep and that the authorities are refusing to provide him with a blanket. He further submitted that prison officials are not even allowing the blanket given to him by his family.

Expressing displeasure, the judge questioned why the prison authorities were acting in this manner despite repeated instructions from the court. The judge further asked how the authorities could deny a blanket in cold weather and directed them to immediately provide one to Darshan.
