Bengaluru: Court asks IT dept to file FIR against DK Shivakumar for tearing document


Daijiworld Media Network - Bengaluru (SP)

Bengaluru, Feb 15: State energy minister, D K Shivakumar, who had been subjected to income tax (IT) raid last year, now encounters another legal hurdle. The court of economic offenses here has served the minister non-bailable summons for personal presence before it on March 22.

The IT raid had happened when Shivakumar was busy extending protection to over 40 legislators from Gujarat who had stayed at Eagleton Resort on August 2, 2017. During the raid, Shivakumar, who was in the resort, had torn a paper containing valuable information. It is alleged that in that torn paper it was written that "I have to get Rs 18 crore." The IT officials found this information by joining the pieces of the torn paper. Subsequently, they had approached the court of economic offense accusing Shivakumar of destroying evidence.

The court which conducted the hearing, issued the notice, on the allegation of destruction of evidence. Judge of the court, Mohan Shanthappa Alva, it is learnt, issued summons seeking the personal presence of the minister on March 22. It is also said that as a non-bailable warrant has been issued, the minister can possibly face arrest. It is learnt that the minister is preparing to secure bail in the case.

The court has directed the CBI police to register two FIRs against the minister under IPC section 201, 204 for the destruction of evidence and IT act 276 C1 for intentional fraud of income tax. Under orders of the chief director (investigations) of income tax, R Ravichandran, a team of IT officials have taken up the prosecution of Shivakumar.

    ‘Loot and escape’ had become new identity of Centre’s Narendra Modi government. The former IPL chairman, Lalit Modi, and the liquor baron, Vijay Mallya, too were allowed to leave India and arms dealer Sanjay Bhandari , who was found to be in possession of sensitive military procurement documents, managed "flight without passport" despite the fact that his passport had been impounded by the income tax.
    The Rs 11,000 crore PNB scam and fleeing of Nirav Modi from India, the mastermind behind the scam.“The entire system was bypassed. All regulatory mechanisms broke down. Everything escaped the eyes of auditors and investigators. ‘Risk management’ and ‘fraud detection ability’ came to naught. Yet, the Modi government would have us believe that this entire fraud was being perpetrated by two employees.”
    1. “Has it become the norm for letting people run away with public money? Who is responsible?”
    2. How a man being investigated for thousands of crores of rupees worth scam was allowed to travel to Davos as part of PM Modi’s delegation?

    Nirav Modi’s(Chota Modi) younger brother Neeshal Modi is married to Mukesh Ambani’s niece Isheta Salgaocar. Mukesh Ambani had hosted a star-studded pre-wedding bash for the couple at his Mumbai home in 2016.

    The timeline of DKS and fisheries Income Tax raids does prove that political vendetta of BJP to weaken the Congress powerful leader into submission by using administrative power. Whereas despite 42 FIR's against Nirav Modi fraudulent transactions of Rs.11,000 crores PMO is sitting mute. Is PM Modi's hands tied down due to Ambani connection with fraudster Nirav Modi?

    If should be noted that, during 2014 BJP election campaign PM Modi asked to bring back 'black money' from tax havens in 100 days if his government elected to power.
    Instead of 'black money' return, now PM Modi government is arranging planned escape with 'public money' to invest in tax free havens & reroute to BJP's party fund.

    Our judicial system is very bad along with CBI. This must be an eye wash. It took so long to court to ask IT dept to file FIR against DKS and CBI to join the paper pieces. Daal mae kala hai. I am still wondering how judge Mudgal gave clean chit to Amma and now to Shashikala. In other countries he would have been behind bars.

    weather it be any party , if the leaders are corrupt they should face punishment . unfortunately our justice system is so so so so so slow that it give every convict enough confidence that evidences will never appear to put them behind bars

    The judicial system should change and the common man should see that the law is actually powerful
    this will bring a lot of change in the system and social behavior

    I Agree, @ any condition you cannot tear govt documents.......

    DKS you should be role model to others being a Minister. We support congress that doesn't mean that we support your nonsense also!!!

    Keep you ego aside and live a normal life with keeping mind cool.
