CBI Challenges Karnataka Move To Take Away DK Shivakumar Probe Sanction

Last year, the Karnataka cabinet moved to withdraw consent for a CBI investigation against DK Shivakumar in a disproportionate assets case.

The Central Bureau of Investigation has approached the Karnataka High Court against the state government's decision to take away the disproportionate assets case against Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar from the agency.

The High Court will hear the matter today shortly.

Asked about the CBI's court move, Mr Shivakumar said, "I will speak about all that later."
