The Special Court for People’s Representatives had instructed Lokayukta SP of Mysuru Division T.J.  Udesh to submit the investigation report into the case of CM Siddaramaiah’s wife B.M. Parvathi, being allotted 14 alternative sites at upscale Vijayanagar Second Stage in the city, before Dec.24, seven days to go from today.

The investigation is conducted in several angles and barring the previous MUDA Commissioner G.T. Dinesh Kumar, the enquiry of other accused in the case have been completed. Moreover, several more substantial documents are pending to be collected, the reasons on the basis of which the probe agency may seek more time to submit the report to the Court.
