“...people will teach a lesson to those indulging in conspiracies,” he said. The victim’s mother, who had levelled the charge against Yediyurappa, died at a private hospital here last month, due to lung cancer. Earlier this week, the victim’s brother had moved the court alleging that though the case was registered on March 14, no progress has been made in the investigation. The petitioner prayed the court for a direction to the police to arrest Yediyurappa and interrogate him.

After the Sadashivanagar police registered the case in March, the Karnataka Director General of Police Alok Mohan had issued an order transferring it to the CID for further investigation. A court here on Thursday had issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against Yediyurappa in the case registered against him under the POCSO Act on March 14 this year. In April, the CID collected the voice sample of Yediyurappa after summoning him to the office.
