Padmaraj, who was released on bail, made allegations that he had paid 21 crore to LoP for Bengaluru mayor’s post
-
FORMER city corporator SH Padmaraj was arrested on Wednesday for allegedly issuing life threat to BJP MLA K Gopalaiah and his family members.
The issue led to a ruckus in the Legislative Assembly. Meanwhile, Padmaraj, who was released on bail, made explosive allegations that he had paid ₹1 crore to Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Assembly R Ashoka for Bengaluru mayor's post.
Gopalaiah filed a complaint with Kamakshipalya police alleging that Padmaraj, the excorporator of Basaveshwara Nagar ward, called him around 11pm on Tuesday and threatened him with dire consequences and told him to return his money. Following the complaint, the police booked Padmaraj for intentional insult to provoke breach of peace and criminal intimidation and arrested him.
Later, he was produced before a city court, which granted him bail. Padmaraj, who was with BJP and worked closely with Gopalaiah, joined Congress in April 2023.
