Bengaluru, DHNS: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday denied he withheld details of cases pending against him in the affidavit filed by him during the 2013 Assembly elections.
“Charges made by JD(S) leader H D Kumaraswamy that 10 cases were pending against me in Mysuru are false. All the cases were closed way back in 2008... He (Kumaraswamy) is a big liar,” the chief minister told reporters.
The police had filed petty cases such as unlawful assembly for staging protests in Mysuru, he said.
Many of these cases were filed in 2007. The CID subsequently submitted a ‘C’ report and it was accepted in 2008, Siddaramaiah added. But Kumaraswamy has tried to mislead people by claiming that the cases were not disclosed during the 2013 elections, he said.
He, however, admitted that Congress worker Marigowda had staged protests with him and that cases were also filed against him.
Mysuru Deputy Commissioner C Shikha recently filed a case against Marigowda for abusing her. Marigowda is said to be a close aide of Siddaramaiah.
