Chikmagaluru: SP Annamalai transferred; Harish Pandey is new SP
Chikmagaluru, October 16: The state government on Tuesday transferred Chikmagaluru SP K. Annamalai to Bengaluru South with immediate effect. In place of Annamalai, the government has placed Harish Pandey.
Harish Pandey had worked as CID SP. He was instrumental in investigating the Gauri Lankesh murder case.
For the last few days, rumours were doing rounds that Annamalai would be transferred. As soon as BS Yeddyurappa took over as the Chief Minister after Assembly election, he had transferred Annamalai to Ramanagar. But in the later political developments, H.D. Kumaraswamy became the Chief Minister. After, the new CM has cancelled the transfer of Annamalai and retained in Chikmagaluru.
