The Directorate of
Enforcement continued raids at the MUDA office for the second consecutive day
on Saturday in connection with the alleged corruption in the allotment of 14
sites to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's wife Parvathi in Mysuru.
The officials barred
outsiders from entering the Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) premises.
The Central probe
agency officials, with a CRPF security team, have been conducting raids at the
MUDA office in Mysuru, its Tehsil office, and the premises of an accused in the
case, Devaraju, at Kengeri in Bengaluru since Friday morning.
Sources said the
searches were launched after the agency sent multiple communications to MUDA
seeking answers to more than three dozen questions about land acquisition and
allotment policies but did not get a "satisfactory" reply.
On September 30, the
ED filed an enforcement case information report (ECIR) to book the CM and
others taking cognisance of a Lokayukta FIR.
The CM is facing
allegations of illegalities in the allotment of 14 sites to his wife B M
Parvathi by the MUDA in the prime location of Mysuru-PTI
