Bengaluru: A special court in Bengaluru has once again taken cognisance of a chargesheet filed by the Karnataka CID police against former Karnataka Chief Minister and senior BJP leader B S Yediyurappa in a Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act case. The case was registered in March 2024.
BJP MLA Munirathna has been remanded to police custody until October 5, 2024, following his arrest on charges of rape, sexual harassment, and using HIV-positive women to honey trap rivals. The Karnataka government formed a Special Investigation Team to probe these serious allegations, which have significantly damaged his political career and prompted widespread public outrage.
