Karnataka High Court dismisses CBI's plea to continue investigation against Deputy CM Shivakumar, directs them to approach Supreme Court.
The Karnataka High Court has dismissed the CBI's plea to continue its investigation against Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar on allegations of disproportionate assets. The court ruled that the CBI must approach the Supreme Court to challenge the state government's withdrawal of consent for the probe, as the dispute is between the State Government and the CBI. The court kept all issues on merit open for adjudication by the Supreme Court, and the High Court verdict is expected on August 29 regarding the CBI's plea to investigate corruption charges against Shivakumar.
