Officials said that a case has been registered against three BJP leaders – Mohan Kataria, former district unit BJP President, local leaders Revanasiddapa and Shekar NP — in the Kottur police station, a Hindustan Times report said. Reportedly the case was registered after a complaint made by Shivamurthy.
As per Shivamurthy, BJP leader Revanasiddapa – his friend – met the former at his residence and claimed that he had close contacts with all the leaders of the party and showed him some pictures to back up his claim. Revanasiddapa promised him a BJP ticket from the Hagaribommanahalli seat. After this, he took Shivamurhty to Bengaluru and introduced him to the BJP leader Shekhar NP, a native of Puttur.
Subsequently, Shivamurthy was made to meet BJP state president Nalin Kumar Kateel at the party office in Bengaluru. According to Shivamurthy’s brother C Anjinappa “Kateel told Shivamurthy that Rajashekar would take care of his ticket and directed to discuss the matter with him, which appeared to give trust and confidence,” an Indian Express quoted him Anjinappa as saying.
