Special court issues show-cause notice to IO of Lokayukta police for not conducting fresh probe on bribery plaint against Chief Minister Siddaramaiah

The Hindu  

In a rare instance, the Special Court of Sessions for Criminal Cases against former and present MPs and MLAs has issued a show-cause notice to the investigation officer of the Lokayukta police for not conducting a fresh preliminary inquiry against Chief Minister Siddaramaiah in an alleged bribery case despite a direction issued by the court in this regard way back in February. “Issue show-cause notice to the concerned investigating officer and a copy of the same shall be sent to the Superintendent of Police, Lokayukta, for instructing the investigating officer to do the needful in accordance with law,” said Santosh Gajanan Bhat, judge of the special court in the order passed on August 22. The court noted that the Lokayukta police neither filed a fresh report nor conducted a fresh preliminary investigation in terms of its February 21, 2024, order, in which it had rejected the earlier investigation report and had given six months to submit a fresh report after conducting further probe. The court had rejected the earlier report as the Lokayukta police had recommended closure of the complaint without conducting any probe but solely based on a statement sent by Mr. Siddaramaiah.
