MUDA: Karnataka HC reserves order on petition seeking CBI probe

New Indian Express  

BENGALURU: Taking on record the report of the investigation and accompanying documents submitted by the Lokayukta police in a sealed cover on the alleged irregularities in the allotment of 14 compensatory sites to BM Parvathy, wife of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, by the Mysuru Urban Development Authority, the Karnataka High Court on Monday reserved its judgment on a petition filed by a Mysuru-based social activist seeking to refer the case being probed by the Lokayukta police to CBI. Arguing for the petitioner, senior advocate Maninder Singh contended that the matter is required to be referred to the CBI for impartial probe since the high functionaries of the state are involved. Nobody cast doubts over the probe by the Lokayukta police, but it has to go to the CBI in view of administrative and political compulsions on the Lokayukta agency, he argued. Pointing out that the cabinet note, chief secretary’s note and legal opinion are to favour Siddaramaiah in the matter, Singh said that to meet the ends of justice and in the interest of the public, the probe must be handed over to the CBI since there is no possibility of fairness by the state, in view of efforts already made to brush the case under the carpet.
