Bengaluru: Inspector selected for CM’s gold medal flees for fear of Lokayukta arrest
Bengaluru: In a dramatic incident reported here, a senior police officer who had been selected for the Chief Minister's Gold Medal, Inspector Kumar of Annapoorneshwari Nagar Police Station is reported to be absconding allegedly for fear of an arrest by Lokayukta Police.
The officer, who is learned to be absconding since Tuesday night, was to receive the medal on Wednesday, April 2, having been selected for his outstanding performance as police officer.
The inspector is accused of harassing one Anusha, wife of contractor Channegowda. He allegedly filed a false case against Gowda and then pressurized Anusha to sell a house worth Rs 4 crore, harassing her further to register it for a lower price.
Anusha was called for a rendezvous at a private hotel in Nagarbhavi on Tuesday evening to sign an agreement in this regard, but Inspector Kumar reportedly fled from the scene on learning that Lokayukta officers were raiding the hotel.
Five people, including two constables, are learned to have been arrested on the occasion.

POCSO case: Bandi Sanjay asks son to appear before police, urges cooperation
Hyderabad (PTI): A day after the Telangana High Court refused to grant interim relief to Bandi Bageerath, who has been booked under a POCSO case, his father and Union Minister Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Saturday said he has asked his son to appear before the police and join the probe.
In a statement, Bandi Sanjay said he had asked his son to cooperate with the police soon after the complaint was registered last week.
However, Bageerath, who has been repeatedly maintaining that he has done no wrongdoing, presented evidence in his favour to his lawyers, the union minister said.
According to Bandi Sanjay, the lawyers opined that the case would be quashed and that Bageerath would get bail, which led to the delay.
