Bangalore, Dec 5: Karnataka High Court today observed the Lokayukta Court did not examine witnesses before taking cognisance of a private complaint against former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa relating to alleged land scams.
When a special procedure is prescribed (to be tried under the Prevention of Corruption Act), it “requires the Magistrate not only to examine the complainant but also all witnesses in the case. In this case, it was not done,” the court noted during the hearing on a petition by Yeddyurappa seeking quashing of two corruption cases against him.
