Dismisses with cost of ₹25,000 BSY’s plea against probe; restores another corruption complaint against him
Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa has suffered multiple setbacks as the High Court of Karnataka has directed the trial court and the Lokayukta police to take note of the “unscrupulous, immoral, and unholy nexus between Mr. Yediyurappa and the complainant, and other offenders” and take suitable action as per law at an appropriate stage in connection with an alleged corruption case related to denotification of land.

The High Court has quashed the FIR registered against former chief minister H D Kumaraswamy, former ministers G Parameshwara and D K Shivakumar in connection with a protest held outside the Income Tax Department office on Infantry Road in the city on March 28, 2019.
Justice John Michael Cunha quashed the Special Court’s order directing the police to investigate and the subsequent FIR, on the ground that a second FIR on the same incident is not maintainable.
A Mallikarjuna, a social activist of Gubbi in Tumakuru district, had filed a private complaint against the politicians for staging the protest against the Income Tax Department.

Bengaluru, Dec 23 : In a major setback to Karnataka Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa, the Karnataka High Court on Tuesday refused to entertain his plea to quash a private complaint alleging that he had carried out ‘denotification of land recklessly’ when he served as the Deputy Chief Minister in 2006-07.
Judge John Michel Cunha in his order observed that he cannot accept the arguments placed by Yediyurappa’s counsel that the FIR be quashed. “To be precise, the entire complaint or the FIR is not quashed. An order passed in favour of accused number 1 (Congress leader R.V. Deshpande) does not benefit the petitioner (Yediyurppa),” the order stated.
