Udupi’s alleged voyeurism case handed over to CID

The Karnataka government has handed over the investigation into the alleged voyeurism incident at a paramedical college in Udupi to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID). Director-General and Inspector-General of Police Alok Mohan issued an order to his effect on Monday.

“As this alleged recording of video in the washroom of the private college is a sensitive one, it has been handed over to CID for further investigation,” Chief Minister Siddaramaiah posted on X (formerly Twitter).

Udupi MLA Yashpal Suvarna told reporters in Udupi that the case has been handed over to the CID in a hurry to wound up the case and favour the accused. The latest decision has been taken a few days after recording the voluntary statements of the victim and three accused students before the magistrate, he said.
