Bengaluru, September 29, 2024: In a letter to his colleagues, Additional Director General of Police (SIT), Lokayukta, M. Chandrashekar condemned “false and malicious allegations” aimed at obstructing the Special Investigation Team’s work. He vowed to perform his duties without fear or favor.

This response came shortly after Union Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy accused Mr. Chandrashekar of leaking sensitive information and seeking permission to probe the Governor’s office. The minister also accused him of creating fake documents and engaging in illegal activities.

Refuting these claims, Mr. Chandrashekar stated that Mr. Kumaraswamy, an accused on bail, was attempting to intimidate the SIT. He assured his team that they would continue their work undeterred by threats, promising to protect them from external pressures and ensure justice.
