A complainant contends that the chief minister abused his powers while serving as the leader of the opposition in the state assembly on March 31, 2005.
Among the cases filed in the court of the 23rd additional city civil and sessions judge, Chandrashekar B Hipparagi, against chief minister BS Yeddyurappa, are:
Nepotism: The complainant contends that the chief minister abused his powers while serving as the leader of the opposition in the state assembly on March 31, 2005.
He had sought the intervention of then chief minister Dharam Singh in the illegal allotment of a plot of land to RP Shankar, maternal uncle of his son-in-law, Sohan Kumar. The site allotted was number 33A, HSR Layout, measuring 40 feet by 60 feet.
By 2007, Shankar executed a gift deed in favour of Vinoda Nataraj, mother of Sohan Kumar, who in turn transferred the plot to Sohan Kumar. All these transactions were approved by the BDA, although they were in flagrant violation of rules governing the allotment and transfer of plots.
Dubious agreement: Another case alleges that the chief minister had executed a rental agreement with Adarsh Developers Group of Companies, that was dubious. The complaint states that when Yeddyurappa took charge as chief minister, he leased property to Adarsh Developers in RMV Extension, III Stage, V Block.
He received a rental advance of Rs50 lakh. The monthly rent, however, was never paid. Despite showing rental income of Rs11.43 lakh in his assets and liability statement, as rental deposit from Adarsh Developers, the complainant alleges that the house was never leased, in the first place. Adarsh Developers never took physical possession of the house; the house remained in the possession of the chief minister.
Illegal denotification of land: A criminal case relates to breach of trust through illegal denotification of land of over five acres in Nagarbhavi village, acquired by BDA. The legal heirs of Huchamma, to whom the land belonged, sought that the land be spared acquisition.
The chief minister proceeded to denotify the land, stating that revenue sites have been formed and temples and churches had come up in the land.
