Bengaluru, Dec 19: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has sought sanction from Karnataka government to prosecute police officers and others in the I Monetary Advisory (IMA) scam, informed CBI sources on Thursday.

According to sources, the sanction has been sought to prosecute IPS Hemant Nimbalkar, the then IGP CID Economic Offences Wing (EOW), IPS Ajay Hilori the then DCP East Bangalore, EB Sridhara the then DSP CID EOW, Inspector M Ramesh, the then SHO Commercial city Police Station Bengaluru, P Gowrishankar the SI Commercial City PS, IC Nagrajan, then assistant commissioner north subdivision Bengaluru.

At the time of Offence, Sridhara was the Investigating Officer and Nimbalkar was the supervisory officer. The enquiry into activities of IMA groups was being done by CID EOW. The CID allegedly gave clean chit to IMA and its director Mansoor Ali Khan even when Rs 4000 Crores of deposits were illegally raised from lakhs of innocent investors, sources said.

IPS Ajay Hilori who was directly supervising the work of Inspector Ramesh and Gowrishankar allegedly failed to register the case despite receiving complaints from tehsildar, deputy tehsildar and social activists and in fact, closed all the complaints to favour the IMA group, the sources claimed.

The CBI last month registered one more case against accused BM Vijay Shankar, former Deputy Commissioner, Bengaluru Urban, and two other government officials for accepting "illegal gratification" from the IMA

Hassan, Feb 2: Former prime minister and JD(S) supremo H D Deve Gowda has said that the controversy over the Citizenship (Amendment) Act should be resolved peacefully through discussion.

Speaking to reporters in Halebeed on Saturday, Gowda said that the Act affects only Muslims but would also prove troublesome for the Hindus. “Opening fire on anti-CAA protesters is the not solution to the issue,” he said.

Deve Gowda said that during his tenure as prime minister a number of problems concerning Muslims were addressed. “But, in the run up to election, Rahul Gandhi described us ‘B’ team of BJP. This led to vote swing,” he added. When his comment was sought on the budget, the former prime minister said that he had not yet read the budget document.
