“CBI-State Dispute Should Be Settled By Supreme Court”: Karnataka HC Dismisses Pleas to Probe Against DK Shivakumar

Today, On 29th August, the Karnataka High Court dismissed CBI’s petition to investigate DK Shivakumar, deferring the matter to the Supreme Court due to its Center-State nature. This decision came after the State government withdrew consent for a CBI probe into Shivakumar’s alleged illegal assets. The Court rejected the petitions, citing lack of maintainability.
