Mangaluru, May 26, 2015: As per reports, Shobha Karandlaje, Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP, on May 25,  demanded a  CBI - Central Bureau of Investigation  probe into the lottery scam that has led to the suspension of a senior police officer of IGP rank MP Karandlaje alleged that besides influential politicians, nearly 38 police officers were involved in the scam. What had been unearthed so far was the mere surface of the scam and its roots ran deeper, she said.

Since top politicians and police officers were involved, it was not possible for the CID - Criminal Investigation Department to fairly  investigate the scam. The only way for  the truth to come out was to  hand over the probe to the CBI without delay.
