Accusing Karnataka mining baron Gali Janardhan Reddy and Karnataka Administrative Service's (KAS) officer of harassing him, a driver has allegedly committed suicide on Tuesday, reported CNN-News18. The driver, Ramesh Gowda, was working for Bengaluru land acquisition officer Bheema Nayak.

Gowda claimed in his suicide note that he was receiving constant death threats as he knew how Reddy had converted his black money into white— the Rs 100 crore used for the opulent wedding of his daughter held recently.

In exchange, Bheema Nayak is said to have received a 20% cut of that amount as well help to get a ticket to contest the 2018 Karnataka elections.

The suicide note also claims that before the wedding, Reddy and BJP MP Sriramulu met Bheema Nayak several times in Bengaluru.

After the "100-crore wedding", the Income Tax department visited Janardhan Reddy’s house in Bellary and asked him to produce details of the income for the money spent on the wedding.
