Summons issued to Balakrishne Gowda
The Lokayukta Court here on Monday ordered issue of summons to H.D. Balakrishne Gowda, son of former prime minister H.D. Devegowda, in connection with a disproportionate asset case filed against him.
Lokayukta Judge N.K. Sudhindra Rao directed Gowda to appear before the court on September 10.
Gowda, a retired Karnataka Administrative Service officer, was granted anticipatory bail by the Karnataka High Court on August 22 in the case in which Lokayukta police had already filed a charge sheet.
He has been charged with accumulating assets worth Rs 5.24 crore, disproportionate to his known sources of income.
The case was filed following a private complaint filed by S.N. Balakrishna, a retired teacher.
