Anupama Shenoy wants CBI probe in Hublot watch controversy

Published On : 06 Sep 2017 | Reported By : Canaranews Network

Udupi: Former deputy superintendent of police (DySP) Anupama Shenoy on Tuesday said that she had written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and urged him to direct a probe by Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into the Hublot watch controversy pertaining to chief minister Siddaramaiah.

"I have written to PM Modi and requested a CBI probe into the Rs 70 lac Hublot watch controversy involving chief minister Siddaramaiah. I have submitted a 33-page document along with other reports to the police. I will submit additional documents to police officials during the investigation.Two multi-crore projects were handed over to the businessman's company in August 2016 where Dr Girish Chandra Varma works," Anupama alleged.

It may be recalled, on March 2, 2016, after the controversy erupted, CM Siddaramaiah had returned the Hublot watch to former Vidhana Sabha speaker Kagodu Thimmappa and declared that Dr Girish Chandra Varma, who reportedly gifted him the watch, does not have anything to do with the government of Karnataka. The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) then gave a clean chit to CM Siddaramaiah in the case by closing the inquiry at the preliminary stage itself in March earlier this year.

Anupam Singh also said that she will reveal many shocking details in future, which will embarass many politicians in near future.
