February 21, 2018

Bengaluru: Congress MLA N.A. Haris yesterday apologised to the State Legislative Assembly about his son’s (Mohammed Nalapad Haris) involvement in an assault case at an upscale pub-cum-restaurant that has stirred a huge political row.

“Sometimes, due to some circumstances, incidents such as these happen. I tender my apologies if the incident has affected the pride of the House and honourable members,” he said in the Assembly.

Haris said that he did not put any pressure on the State Government. He also tendered apologies for the attack on the media outside the Cubbon Park Police Station allegedly by Mohammed Nalapad Haris’ supporters when he came to surrender. He said nobody, including the members of the Assembly, was above law and wrongdoers must be punished.

Meanwhile, Home Minister Ramalinga Reddy told the Assembly that all the accused in the case have been arrested and added that the ASI who had registered a case against Vidvath (victim) has been suspended for violating the law and the ACP has been transferred.

He further said that the case has been handed over to the Central Crime Branch (CCB) and added that full powers have been given to the Police  to probe the case.
