Mangaluru, Jan 6: The miscreants arrested in connection with the coldblooded murder of Deepak Rao have reportedly received a huge amount of money recently.

The police are not sure whether the money was paid as supari to kill a Hindu youth to create tension in the region ahead of impending Karnataka Assembly polls.

According to sources, prime accused Pinki Nawaz received a huge amount of money, which was later shared among the four accused. The amount was transferred through a bank account.

The four suspects - Pinki Nawaz, Rizwan, Mohammed Naushad and Mohammed Irshan - were arrested within hours of the murder that took place on January 3 at Katipalla. The first two accused sustained bullet injuries when the police opened fire to nab them and the other two are being interrogated by the police.

"The police are investigating whether the money was paid for the murder. Deepak Rao was not a prominent leader of BJP, Bajrang Dal or any other organisation. He was only a BJP member. The police are investigating the purpose behind the transfer of money," said a police officer, who is part of the investigation team.

Local MLA B A Mohiuddin Bava earlier revealed that Pinki Navaz was an activist of BJP minority morcha and that he had campaigned for BJP candidate Krishna J Palemar in 2013 assembly elections. However, Palemar has disowned Pinki Navaz. “Bava is spreading lies. Pinki has no connection with BJP,” Palemar claimed.

Meanwhile, Food and Civil Supplies Minister U T Khader has demanded a thorough probe into the background of  the accused. “There is a need for checking the background of all accused who killed Deepak Rao. Details of the persons, who support them financially should also be brought before law," Mr Khader said.

The team was also allowed to do a recce from December 27th to 29th as per the agreement, a report said.

Bengaluru, Jan 16: Senior Congress leader K J George on Thursday appeared before the Enforcement Directorate officials here in connection with a FEMA case.

The former minister is being investigated by the ED for probable violation of provisions of the Foreign Exchange Management Act.

The ED had recently issued summons to George.

Speaking to reporters after appearing before the ED, George said he has answered to the officials' queries and will cooperate further also.

"ED had issued me summons, as a law abiding citizen, I have answered and gave documents to whatever they asked.

Further also if they call me...I will cooperate and provide necessary documents," he said, without divulging any details.

George clarified that no summons has been issued by the ED to members of his family.

"If required they (ED officials) will call me again, and I'm ready to cooperate," the congress leader added.

Last year, the president of the Karnataka Rashtra Samithi Ravi Krishna Reddy had complained to the ED seeking a probe into the alleged money laundering and properties held by George and his family members in the United States.

Responding to a question about a defamation case filed by him against those who have levelled the allegations, George said "Just because ED has called me for questioning, I'm not proved guilty."

"Anyone can complain to agencies like the Income Tax or ED or Lokayukta, but my only objection is with going to the press to project someone as guilty," he said.

"...going to the press with an intention to do a propaganda against me..someone who is in public life-- to project me as guilty is wrong, so I have filed defamation case stating the allegations are false," he added.

George is the third senior Congress leader from Karnataka to face an ED probe after D K Shivakumar and B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan.

Shivakumar was arrested by the agency in a money laundering case and was kept in Tihar Jail, until he got bail in October, while Khan was summoned in connection with the multi-crore IMA group Ponzi scam case.
