The former MLA Vijayanand Kashappanavar picked up a quarrel with police officers who went to serve him an arrest warrant in Hungund in Bagalkot district on Sunday. The police personnel from Hungund had reached his house with an arrest warrant from a Bengaluru-based Special Court for disputes related to elected representatives. Officers also told him that the warrant was for a bailable offence and he could seek legal opinion about moving ahead with the case. However, the Congress leader did not accept this. He argued that the police had come to his house to arrest him in the pretext of a warrant. Mr. Kashappanavar also accused them of rushing to his house, by falsely claiming that a neighbour had called them about some altercation in the Kashappanavar household.More Related News
