Bengaluru: At a time when the investigation is on the multi-crore scam against IMA Group of Companies Chairman Mansoor Khan, it came to light that he tried to get Rs 600 crore loan from banks.

It is said that in order to come out of the financial crunch of his company, Mansoor Khan, through a minister, had tried to get Rs 600 crore loan from banks. But because of the timely action of a senior IAS officer, he had failed to get the loan; sources said.

He had applied to various banks for loans. But due to the RBI warning against his transactions, banks denied him the loans and said they could give him the loan if he can produce No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the state government. Following banks objection, he had developed a friendship with ministers and politicians to get a NOC for the loan.

It is said that believing his words, a senior minister has reportedly directed an IAS officer to give him a NOC. But the IAS officer who suspected the business transaction of IMA convinced the minister against giving him the NOC after verifying the documents. After IAS officer said that issuing NOC to Khan could lead to legal complications, the minister reportedly dropped the idea of getting him the NOC.

SIT raid

The SIT officials who have been investigating the IMA scam conducted raids on various places at Shivajinagar, Frazer Town, KR Puram, and Indira Nagar in Bengaluru and verified the documents. The officials also conducted raids on the houses of the directors of IMA who were in the custody of SIT and got the statements of the accused and recovered the documents.

Yadgir (Karnataka) (PTI): A 46-year-old woman allegedly died by suicide after facing sustained social boycott and harassment by members of her community, police said on Thursday.

An FIR has been registered in Yadgir district based on the complaint lodged by Yellappa Suryavamshi (50).

Suryavamshi alleged that the victim Kamalamma (46), a resident of Girinagar area in Yadgir, allegedly jumped into the Bhima river near Joladadagi village between the evening of March 14 and the morning of March 15, following alleged mental harassment linked to a social boycott imposed on her family.

Suryavamshi alleged that their family had been ostracised by members of their community over an unverified accusation involving their son.

“A village panchayat held on September 8, 2025, had directed the family not to interact with a relative and imposed a 10-year social boycott, asking them to vacate the village,” Suryavamshi said in his complaint.

Following the decision, the family had shifted to a rented house in Yadgir town.

However, earlier this month, when the woman returned to their native locality, a group of individuals allegedly confronted her and reiterated the boycott, the FIR said.

“Despite the earlier boycott, she was again prevented from staying in the village and was subjected to continued mental harassment,” the complainant said.

The complainant further alleged that even relatives who offered shelter to the woman were threatened with similar social ostracism.

“Those who gave her refuge were warned of facing a fresh boycott by convening another panchayat,” Suryavamshi alleged.

Unable to bear the alleged humiliation and pressure, the woman is said to have taken the extreme step, police said.

Her body was recovered from the river on March 15 and shifted to the district government hospital mortuary in Yadgir, police said.

Based on the complaint, a case has been registered against five individuals under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), police said, adding that further investigation is underway.
