Jayant T lodges complaint with Lokayukta against recommendation of Thimarodi's externment
Belthangady: Activist Jayant T has filed a complaint with the Karnataka Lokayukta, State Human Rights Commission, Chief Minister, and Home Minister, alleging that false and malicious cases were used to recommend the externment (gadipaaru) of Mahesh Shetty Timarodi.
According to the complaint, the Deputy Superintendent of Police (DySP) of Bantwal allegedly submitted a misleading report to the Assistant Commissioner’s court in Puttur subdivision, citing around 13 cases that had already been closed and several others that were allegedly filed with malicious intent. Jayant has demanded an inquiry and appropriate action against the concerned officials.
The complaint states that during the hearing of the externment case, the DySP violated procedural norms and attempted to influence the Assistant Commissioner’s court to secure an order against Mahesh Shetty. Jayant further claimed that while 26 cases were registered against Mahesh Shetty, 16 of them have already been disposed of. Despite this, the DySP allegedly presented written statements in court without supporting documents, which Jayant described as contemptuous of the judiciary.
The externment case of Mahesh Shetty Timarodi is currently pending before the Karnataka High Court. Meanwhile, Jayant recently posted a video on social media leveling several allegations against the Bantwal DySP, following which Belthangady police registered a suo motu case against him.
