Sex Scandal: Looks like a conspiracy, a case of honey trap: JD(S)
Bengaluru, Mar 27: The alleged sex scandal involving former Minister Ramesh Jarkiholi was turning out be a case of "honey trap", JD(S) said on Saturday, as it urged police to conduct an impartial probe to ascertain the truth, without succembing to any political pressure.
The party, in a series of tweets, said the the sex scandal episode has put Karnataka to shame before the nation.
What initially looked like a sex scandal and sexual exploitation now seems like a conspiracy.
The name of D K Shivakumar (Congress leader) has figured, making it look like a case of honey-trap.
In all this, Karnataka is being put to shame before the nation," the regional party, headed by former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda, said.
Noting the release of back to back audio and video clippings, the party said there seemed to be a big group involved in the entire episode.
Under the guise of providing justice to the victim, it was becoming clearer that someone is using her to play a game.
It would be a 'huge insult' to Karnataka and its police force if the case is allowed 'to just be by itself, making it an entertainment for the country," JD(S) said and called on police to bring out the truth without succumbing to any political pressure.
"The question whether this is sexual exploitation, a conspiracy or a honey-trap is troubling the citizens.
Without distinguishing between ruling and opposition parties, police should find the truth.
The state police is known for its sense of duty, and the time has come to prove it once again, it added.
ಆರಂಭದಲ್ಲಿ ಲೈಂಗಿಕ ಹಗರಣ, ಲೈಂಗಿಕ ಶೋಷಣೆಯಂತೆ ಕಾಣುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ಸಿ.ಡಿ ಹಗರಣ ಈಗ ಷಡ್ಯಂತ್ರದಂತೆ ಕಾಣುತ್ತಿದೆ. ಪ್ರಕರಣದಲ್ಲಿ @DKShivakumar ಮತ್ತು @siddaramaiah ಹೆಸರು ಕೇಳಿಬರುವ ಮೂಲಕ ಪ್ರಕರಣ ಈಗ 'ಹನಿಟ್ರ್ಯಾಪ್' ಸ್ವರೂಪ ಪಡೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಿದೆ. ಇದೆಲ್ಲದರ ನಡುವೆ ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರದ ಎದುರು ನಾಚಿಕೆ ಪಡುವ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ರಾಜ್ಯ ನಿಂತಿದೆ.

ರಾತ್ರಿ ಒಂದು ಆಡಿಯೊ ಬಿಡುಗಡೆಯಾಗುವುದು, ಬೆಳಗ್ಗೆ ಅದಕ್ಕೊಂದು ಸ್ಪಷ್ಟನೆಯ ವಿಡಿಯೊ ಬಿಡುಗಡೆಯಾಗುವುದು... ಇವೆಲ್ಲವನ್ನೂ ಗಮನಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದರೆ ಇದರ ಹಿಂದೆ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಕೂಟವೇ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡುತ್ತಿರುವಂತೆ ಕಾಣುತ್ತಿದೆ. ಸಂತ್ರಸ್ತೆಗೆ ನ್ಯಾಯ ಕೊಡಿಸುವ ನೆಪದಲ್ಲಿ, ಆಕೆಯನ್ನು ಮುಂದಿಟ್ಟುಕೊಂಡು ಯಾರೋ ಆಟವಾಡುತ್ತಿರುವುದು ಸ್ಪಷ್ಟವಾಗುತ್ತಲಿದೆ.

ಪ್ರಕರಣವನ್ನು ಅದರಪಾಡಿಗೆ ಬಿಟ್ಟು, ಆಗುವ ಬೆಳವಣಿಗೆಯನ್ನು ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರ ನೋಡಿ ಮನರಂಜನೆ ಪಡೆಯುವಂತೆ ಮಾಡುವುದು ರಾಜ್ಯಕ್ಕೆ, ನಮ್ಮ ಪೊಲೀಸರಿಗೆ ಮಾಡುವ ಅತಿ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಅಪಮಾನವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಈ ಸಂದರ್ಭದಲ್ಲಿ ಪೊಲೀಸರು ದಿಟ್ಟತನ ಮೆರೆಯುವುದು ಅತ್ಯಗತ್ಯ. ಯಾವುದೇ ರಾಜಕೀಯ ಒತ್ತಡಗಳನ್ನೂ ಲೆಕ್ಕಿಸದೇ ತನಿಖೆ ನಡೆಸಿ ಅಸಲಿ ಸತ್ಯ ಬಯಲಿಗೆಳೆಯಬೇಕು.

ಲೈಂಗಿಕ ಶೋಷಣೆಯೋ, ಷಡ್ಯಂತ್ರವೋ, ಹನಿಟ್ರ್ಯಾಪ್ ಆಗಿದೆಯೋ ಎಂಬ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆಗಳು ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕರನ್ನು ಕಾಡುತ್ತಿವೆ. ಆಡಳಿತ ಪಕ್ಷ, ವಿರೋಧ ಪಕ್ಷ ಎಂಬುದನ್ನು ಲೆಕ್ಕಿಸದೇ ಅಸಲಿ ಸಂಗತಿಯನ್ನು ಪೊಲೀಸರು ಹೊರ ತರಬೇಕು. ರಾಜ್ಯದ ಪೊಲೀಸರ ಕರ್ತವ್ಯ ನಿಷ್ಠೆಗೆ ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರ ಮಟ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಸರಿದೆ. ಅದರ ಪ್ರದರ್ಶನಕ್ಕೆ ಮತ್ತೊಮ್ಮೆ ಅವಕಾಶ ಸಿಕ್ಕಿದೆ.

ಲೈಂಗಿಕ ಪ್ರಕರಣವೊಂದರ ವರದಿಗಳು ನಿತ್ಯ ಪ್ರಕಟವಾಗುತ್ತಿದ್ದರೆ, ಅದರಿಂದ ಕುಟುಂಬಗಳು ಮತ್ತು ಮಕ್ಕಳ ಮೇಲೆ ಆಗುವ ಪರಿಣಾಮಗಳನ್ನು ನಾವು ಚಿಂತಿಸಬೇಕಿದೆ. ಇದಕ್ಕೆ ಅಂತ್ಯ ಹಾಡಬೇಕಿದ್ದರೆ ಸೂಕ್ತ ತನಿಖೆಯೊಂದೇ ದಾರಿ. ಇಲ್ಲವಾದರೆ, ಈ ಪ್ರಕರಣದ ಬೆಳವಣಿಗೆಗಳು ಮತ್ತಷ್ಟು ವಿಸ್ತಾರವಾಗುತ್ತ ನಾಗರಿಕ ಸಮಾಜ ನಾಚಿಕೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ದಿನ ಕಳೆಯಬೇಕಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.

According to the police, Mallikarjuna had failed the PSI examination twice and later falsely projected himself as a PSI. He allegedly conducted photo shoots in his hometown, Siraguppa, wearing a police uniform, baton, cap, and shoes, claiming to be serving as a PSI in Bengaluru.
On December 7, the four accused allegedly went to the house of Naveen in the Vidyaranyapura limits, threatened him with a stick and an iron rod, and claimed they had information that he was selling ganja. Under the pretext of searching, they allegedly extorted ₹87,000 through bank transfer, ₹53,000 in cash kept in the house, and ₹2,000 from his wallet.
Following Naveen’s complaint, Vidyaranyapura police registered a case and launched an operation, leading to the arrest of all four accused. Police have seized ₹45,000 in cash and the car used to commit the crime.
Further investigation is underway.
