CM trying to shield Minister George in DySP suicide case, alleges Poojary

Mangalore Today News Network

Mangaluru, July 10, 2016: Senior Congress leader B Janardhana Poojary has launched a tirade against Chief Minister Siddaramaiah over the DySP  M K Ganapathi suicide case and accused the  CM of  trying to shield  state minister KJ George whose name the DySP has reportedly mentioned in his death note.

 

Speaking to reporters here on July 9, Saturday, Poojary described  Ganapathy as the son of  Kodagu and charged CM of trying to hush up facts behind the case.

Pointing out that the DySP Ganapathi prior to ending his life, had  in an interview accused  two senior police officials as well as George   of harassing him, Poojary questioned why an FIR has not been lodged against them. "Who is pressurising the Chief Minister against filing an  FIR against the three for abetting the suicide of the officer?" questioned  Poojary.

"Normally people who are dying do not lie and even the Supreme Court has  said that the Dying Declaration should be accepted. But CM Siddaramaiah seems to be very much interested in shielding George. The CM’s action is deterrent to the Congress," said Poojary.
