Special Investigation Team Of CID Not Vitiated Merely Because All Members Not From CID: Karnataka HC While Rejecting BJP MLA Munirathna's Plea

Live Law  

The Karnataka High Court has dismissed a petition filed by BJP MLA Munirathna, seeking to quash a case registered against him for allegedly demanding money from a contractor who had been entrusted under the Solid Waste Management Tender of the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike. As the crimes against Munirathna had emerged from different informants for different offences, the State constituted a Special Investigation Team of the Criminal Investigation Department. Munirathna's counsel submitted that except for the head of the SIT, two other members did not belong to the CID. Justice M Nagaprasanna however did not accept this contention and observed that merely because all the members of the SIT are not from CID, the constitution of the SIT would not get vitiated.
