Make details of bitcoin scam probe public: Shivakumar
The Hindu
Congress has been accusing the ruling BJP of a cover-up on the scam
Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president D.K. Shivakumar on Wednesday demanded that Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai make public details of the bitcoin scam, such as the terms of reference given to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to conduct a probe and involvement of influential politicians of the State in it.
At a press conference, the KPCC chief said, “It is the duty of the ruling party to provide information to the public on the scam. The Opposition parties’ job is to put pressure on the Government to ensure justice from it.”
He claimed to know of the people involved in the scam, and said, “But evidence is required to make the names public. There are many differences between what is stated in a letter seeking probe from a Central agency and statements issued by the Chief Minister on the matter.”
