Bengaluru, Nov 11: Karnataka Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot has asked the Advocate General to take action on a complaint by an activist who alleged that state Minister B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan is liable for contempt of court proceedings.
Activist T J Abraham approached Gehlot on October 21 with a request to direct the Advocate General to consider his appeal for initiating contempt of court proceedings against Khan.
Abraham alleged that Khan had called the High Court order, which allowed a probe against Siddaramaiah in the MUDA case, a "political judgment".
A Raj Bhavan official told PTI, "We have sent the letter to the Advocate General for necessary action in accordance with law."
Speaking to reporters in Channaptna in Ramanagara district, Khan said it was a slip of tongue and he never meant to insult court.
“I wanted to say that politics is being done on the court order but by mistake I said it’s a political judgment. The next day itself I apologised for my comment in the media. I have respect for the court and I never said so,” the Minister said.
He insisted that he was never adamant on what he said but apologised for the statement.

Bengaluru, Nov 14: An FIR has been lodged at the Bengaluru Cyber Crime Police Station following a hacking incident involving the email and YouTube channel of the media outlet Vartha Bharati. The FIR was registered on Thursday based on a complaint from Vartha Bharati.
The hacking was discovered on Thursday morning, revealing that cybercriminals had gained unauthorized access to the official email and subsequently the YouTube channel, youtube.com/varthabharatinews. As a result, Vartha Bharati was unable to broadcast any programs on the platform, raising concerns that the hackers could potentially misuse the channel to disseminate anti-social messages or content. In its complaint, Vartha Bharati requested action to secure the release of the hacked accounts and prevent any misuse.
By Thursday afternoon, YouTube had restored Vartha Bharati's channel to a secondary official email account, allowing the organization to resume its broadcasts. However, the primary hacked email remains inaccessible, and investigations are ongoing to resolve the issue.
