Activist Snehamayi Krishna told the Karnataka High Court on Friday that the Lokayukta police's closure report in the MUDA land scam case against former chief minister Siddaramaiah and others is 'inconclusive' and amounts to a mini-trial. Senior advocate Lakshmi Iyengar argued the report runs to nearly 10,000 pages, but the trial court accepted it without reasoned findings. The court allowed the petitioner to file the records electronically and directed the registry to secure the trial court records. It listed the matter for further hearing on August 24 and asked respondents to file objections. The activist has also sought a fresh investigation by an independent agency monitored by a retired High Court judge. The plea notes that the trial court accepted the B report for Mr Siddaramaiah and his family while ordering further investigation against MUDA officials, allegedly from the same transaction. The court had earlier upheld the Governor's sanction to prosecute the former CM in the case.
