Moodbidri, May 11, 2023: A labourer of Jarkhand origin who had come to the 87th polling booth at Thodar village with the ID card of a person living abroad, was trapped by the polling officials. He was later handed over to police on May 10, Wednesday evening.
The accused is Prakash Rajat. He was a labourer engaged in laying floor tiles and had tried to use the voter ID of the house owner where he worked. Initially some JD(S) workers came to know about this foul play.
BJP workers too gathered in front of the police station and demanded action against those involved in bogus voting.
