Siddaramaiah slams officials for accused managing to get bail
CHIEF Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday directed police and other senior officials to ensure at least 10% conviction rate in atrocity cases in Karnataka. He took the officials to task as the conviction rate in Karnataka has come down compared to 2020.
He slammed the senior officials as the accused in such cases are getting bail. He said if the accused in serious atrocity cases are getting bail with ease, it is because of their careless work. "If this continues, we might not be able to control such cases," he said. There are 665 atrocity cases which are under probe in the state.
