A Congress delegation led by Varuna assembly constituency MLA Yathindra visited the office of businessman Sharat, who had committed suicide, and sought action against the accused persons including Chairperson of Jungle Lodges and Resorts M. Appanna.
The 35-year-old Sharat had ended his life in March this year and had left behind a death note accusing Praveen, another businessman, and Mr. Appanna of cheating him.
When the Congress delegation visited the office of Sharat on Thursday, Mr. Yathindra spoke to a relative of the deceased over the phone and later told reporters that Mr. Appanna should not be allowed to continue as the Chairperson of Jungle Lodges and Resorts, a Government of Karnataka undertaking, in view of the charges against him.
