High Court petition seeks arrest of former CM Yediyurappa in POCSO case
Bengaluru: The elder brother of a victim has taken legal action by filing a writ petition in the High Court, demanding the arrest of former Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa in connection with a POCSO case.
Allegations state that despite filing a complaint against Yediyurappa on March 14, there has been no substantial progress in the case. Represented by Senior Advocate Balan, the petitioner highlights a lack of collection of vital evidence, including panchanama, even after three months since the complaint. Additionally, a video recording of Yeidyurappa's speech adds weight to the plea for his arrest and interrogation.

In response to the petition, the CID issued a notice for Yediyurappa to attend the hearing. However, as he failed to appear, the CID has now approached the People's Representatives Court seeking a non-bailable warrant against him. If granted, this warrant could lead to Yediyurappa's arrest by the CID, escalating legal troubles for the former CM.

Speeding car runs over mother and son in Ahmedabad: Police launch search for driver
Ahmedabad: In Ahmedabad, a 38-year-old woman and her 12-year-old son suffered severe injuries after being run over by a speeding car on New Science Road on Sunday evening.
The accident took place near Shreeji Party Plot, where the family was walking after parking their two-wheeler. CCTV footage shows the car veering to the left and hitting the mother and son, who were walking along the side of the road.
