Prakash, aged 68 at the time of his death, was discovered lying in a blood pool on the ground floor of his three-story house, with visible wounds that indicate foul play.
Prakash's professional life was characterized by commitment and service to the country. As a member of the 1981 batch of the Indian Police Service (IPS), he served in different important roles, such as Superintendent of Police in different districts, and worked in the state's Lokayukta and Criminal Investigation Department. His three-year tenure as DG & IGP of Karnataka, from March 2015 to March 2017, was characterized by his attempts to modernize the police force and enhance its effectiveness.

The police are attempting to gather evidence and re-enact the chain of events resulting in Prakash's death. Although the motive for the crime is yet to be determined, sources indicate that Prakash had complained about threats to his life in the past. The police are also investigating the possibility of a family property dispute as a possible motive.
The probe is being carried out with the utmost caution, considering Prakash's illustrious career and stature. The police are calling upon everyone with information to step forward and help in the investigation. As the case unravels, the citizens of Bengaluru and the police force are left to try to make sense of the gruesome circumstances of Prakash's death.
The police are determined to find out what led to Prakash's death and bring the perpetrators to book. The case serves as a reminder of the dangers and challenges that law enforcement officers face, even in retirement. As the investigations go on, it is hoped that justice will be delivered and that Prakash's family will have closure.
The demise of Om Prakash is an irreparable loss for the nation and the citizens of Karnataka. His service record and commitment to the country will be remembered by generations to come. The citizens of Bengaluru and the police force will miss him immensely, and his spirit will be a source of motivation for those coming after him.
