More than a month after a Kannada television channel claimed that the police have managed to arrest a couple of prime accused in connection with the murder of journactivist Gauri Lankesh, another news channel in Karnataka on Friday, Feb 23, “revealed” the name of a Hindutva leader reportedly arrested by the police.

BTV, a Bengaluru based channel, claimed that the Special Investigation Team probing the sensational murder case, arrested Hotte Manja alias KT Naveen, who according to the channel is a prominent leader of Hindu Yuva Sene and also a worker of a national political party.

The TV also claimed that a Hindutva leader from Mangaluru, who will be getting married on February 28, had introduced a couple of hitmen from North India to Hotte Manja, who hatched the murder plan.

“Hotte Manja was arrested nearly a week ago by the SIT which is now interrogating him in an undisclosed location,” the channel claimed.

Gauri Lankesh was shot dead by bike-borne miscreants in front of her Bengaluru house on September 5.
