Proposal for separate court for CID cases
Bengaluru: The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has proposed establishing a special court, similar to the legislators' court model, for handling cases it investigates. The state government has received this proposal, and the Home Department has responded positively.
A final decision on the special court will be made after discussions with the Law Department, sources indicated.
Currently, CID submits charge sheets to courts within the jurisdiction where FIRs are filed, and cases are tried there. To streamline case handling, CID Director General of Police, Dr M.A. Saleem, has requested the government to establish a special court within the city.

Bengaluru woman groped, beaten, dragged on road after rejecting man’s advances
Bengaluru: A 21-year-old woman was allegedly assaulted in broad daylight in Bengaluru after she rejected repeated relationship advances from a man she had met through social media. The incident, which was captured on CCTV, took place on December 22 around 3.20 pm, NDTV reported.
According to police, the accused, identified as Naveen Kumar, had been in contact with the woman after connecting with her on Instagram earlier this year. While they initially remained in touch through calls and messages, the man reportedly began pressuring her to enter into a relationship, which she refused.
On the day of the incident, the footage shows the woman standing beside a scooty, believed to be an online ride, when the accused arrives at the spot in a car. He is seen taking her purse and checking it before moving towards her and groping her.
The man then repeatedly hits the woman on her head and back and drags her along the road. Despite the presence of two to three bystanders at the scene, no one intervened to help the victim.
The victim later approached the police and filed a complaint. Based on her statement, an FIR was registered, and Naveen Kumar was taken into custody. Police said further investigation is underway.
