Bengaluru Police Commissioner Seemant Kumar Singh revealed that the mobile phone allegedly used in the sting operation targeting former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah was purchased in New Delhi and handed over at the official residence of Union Minister H D Kumaraswamy. The handover was made on the instructions of Prajwal Prasad, according to the statement of arrested accused Ritesh Pandey. Kumaraswamy has denied the allegations and challenged the commissioner to disclose details of the investigation. The police commissioner said notices had been issued to Sharma and Prasad, but neither had responded and are currently absconding. Police intend to oppose their applications and are searching for the two men.
