Mining Baron  

Bengaluru's local court granted conditional bail to Janardhan Reddy in the ED bribe case against Rs 1 lakh bond and surety by two people.

Janardhan Reddy is being produced before the magistrate and cops are not sure if he will be handed over to them or to the judicial custody. But Reddy's close aide Ali Khan is not likely to be arrested because he has obtained bail through sessions court.
 

Hours after releasing video claiming he is not hiding, mining baron Janardhan Reddy reached the City Crime Branch office in Bengaluru to record his statement in the bribery case concerning Enforcement Directorate officials.

Bengaluru's City Crime Branch (CCB) launched a manhunt to arrest mining baron Janardhan Reddy, but there were reports that he was absconding. Reddy has now released a video where he is speaking along with his lawyer.

Former Karnataka minister Janardhan Reddy accused DK Shivakumar of distributing money  to voters in Ballari for the upcoming by-election. 'DK Shivakumar is free and I will wait till he comes and I will expose  him,' said Reddy.
