Police launch search for ‘hacker’ Sri Krishna after providing security
The Hindu
Gunman assigned for security did not find him in his family’s house
The police on Wednesday were looking for ‘hacker’ Sri Krishna after a gunman who was assigned to him to provide security found that he was not in his house at Jayanagar here. Family members said he had not returned since he was released on bail last Thursday.
The decision to provide security cover in the form of a gunman was taken after considering the threat perception, a concern that had been raised by Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly Siddaramaiah.
“A police officer was sent to his house on Tuesday but he was not there. He left but returned again on Wednesday to check on Sri Krishna. But his family said that he had not come home,” said a senior police officer, adding that his relatives said they were unaware of his whereabouts.
