The police, who are probing the death of contractor Santosh Patil, will issue notice to former Minister K.S. Eshwarappa if needed, said Home Minister Araga Jnanendra on Wednesday.
Speaking to reporters here, he said there is no question of protecting anyone in the case. “The police are conducting a free and fair investigation. We will not interfere in it. The police will issue notice to whoever is connected to the case,” he said.
