Woman arrested for cheating people in the name of MLA

The Shorapur Police arrested a woman on the charge of misusing the name of MLA Narasimha Nayak (Rajugowda) during a telephone conversation with a man to offer him a job. The woman has been identified as Rekha M.N.

The police took action after Mr. Nayak lodged a complaint when an audio tape containing the voice of the accused and the man dragging his name went viral.

Superintendent of Police C.B. Vedamurthy, who released a press note here on Wednesday, said that a team of senior police officers headed by Police Inspector of Shorapur Sunil Mulimani and Police Inspector of CEN Station Bapugowda had been formed to investigate the case and take further action.
