BENGALURU : While observing that the complainant has made out a prima facie case at this stage, a special court set up exclusively to deal with criminal cases related to MPs and MLAs in Karnataka has issued summons to former chief minister BS Yediyurappa in relation to a land denotification complaint lodged against him in 2013.

Special judge B Jayantha Kumar has ordered authorities to register a special criminal case for offences punishable under section 13(1)(d) read with section 13(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 against the former chief minister. The judge also directed Yediyurappa to appear before him, after filing a list of witnesses as required under section 204(2) CrPC, and payment of process fee.
