CBI moves SC, contests Karnataka decision to halt probe into DK Shivakumar wealth by withdrawing consent
Karnataka deputy chief minister D K Shivakumar faces renewed legal scrutiny as the CBI challenges the state government’s decision to halt its investigation into his alleged Rs 75-crore disproportionate assets. The Siddaramaiah government withdrew consent for the probe, but the CBI asserts its right to complete it. Shivakumar claims the investigation is politically motivated and remains confident in the judiciary.
