"I don't know why the government is behind him, this also shows police's inability," DK Shivakumar said.
Karnataka Congress President DK Shivakumar on Tuesday alleged that the BJP government in the state was supporting former Minister Ramesh Jarkiholi, who has been accused of involvement in the sex scandal that has rocked the state politics. "I have nothing to say on this, it is honourable Minister (former Minister) who is involved, which all of you have seen through your eyes, the government is supporting him. I don't know why the government is behind him, this also shows police's inability," Mr Shivakumar said. Asked whether the Special Investigation Team (SIT) has issued any notice to him as he has been named by the woman's parents, he said, "why will it? (SIT issue notice to me).. even if it gives, most welcome. If they call me, whatever I know, I will answer. I will cooperate." The family of the woman in the purported sex video has repeatedly blamed Mr Shivakumar for the sex scandal, accusing him of playing "dirty politics" by using their daughter.More Related News
