Commercial Street police picked up Mr Sharif on Wednesday night and formally arrested him in connection with the murder case on Thursday morning, sources said.

According to police sources, Mr Sharif was in touch with Irfan Pasha, who was earlier arrested in connection with the case.

During interrogation, some suspects arrested earlier in the case allegedly told the police that they acted based on instructions from Sheriff. However police said that the allegation can be confirmed only after interrogating Mr Sherif.

Political conspiracy'

Meanwhile, the PFI has condemned the arrest of Mr Sharif and called it a political conspiracy.

Addressing a press conference in Bengaluru, Yasir Hasan, General secretary of PFI-Karnataka rubbished all allegations against Mr Sharif and denied any connection with the murder.

Mr Hasan, claimed that the allegations were politically motivated. “PFI strongly condemns the irrelevant arrest of our district President. This is politically motivated,” he said.

Rudresh was hacked to death by two bike-borne men on October 16 near Shivajinagar. The police arrested Mohammed Majidullah alias Mujib(44) from RT Nagar, Mohd Sadiq(35) from JC Nagar, Vasim Ahmed (36) from Austin Town and Irfan Pasha (30) Govindapura on October 27.

The RSS has announced that it would seek a ban on organizations that have played a role in the murder.

Bengaluru, Jan 6: Chief minister BS Yediyurappa has plenty on his plate ahead of the 2020-21 state budget to be presented on March 5 what with the economic slowdown and a sizeable shortfall in revenue, but the biggest worry is the uncertainty surrounding Goods and Services Tax (GST) compensation from the Centre.

There is also uncertainty over the state’s share under devolution of funds as per the 14th Finance Commission recommendation.

Finance department officials say that while Rs 3,500 crore is expected as GST compensation for every two months, the devolution of funds would have yielded about Rs 7,000 crore for the current fiscal. But the economic slowdown appears to have hit the Centre’s finances and is likely to impact the state’s share of funds.

“The GST payment for August-September came only in December and we are unsure how much we will get for October-November and December-January,” an official said. Estimates suggest the state’s share under devolution of funds could be reduced by half.

At a meeting of finance department officials last week, Yediyurappa is said to have admitted that unlike those states where non-BJP parties are in power — they have threatened agitations and court cases — the government cannot go “against” Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s regime.

Instead, Yediyurappa has urged senior IAS finance department officials to lobby for funds with their counterparts in New Delhi. On his part, Yediyurappa is said to have already written to Modi and finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman to at least release the state’s share of GST compensation for the current calendar year of 2019. He is planning to personally meet the PM in Delhi to push the state’s case.
