Union minister H.D. Kumaraswamy, his son Nikhil, and MLA C.B. Suresh Babu face legal trouble as Bengaluru police filed an FIR against them for allegedly threatening Lokayukta SIT chief M. Chandrasekhar. Chandrasekhar accused the trio of intimidation after seeking permission to prosecute Kumaraswamy in illegal mining cases. Kumaraswamy denies the allegations, calling them ridiculous and vows to fight the case in court.
