The Supreme Court on Monday dismissed Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar's petition challenging the CBI's FIR against him in a disproportionate assets case.
The bench, comprising Justices Bela M Trivedi and S C Sharma, stated it would not interfere with the Karnataka High Court's decision.
The case involves allegations by the CBI that Shivakumar accumulated assets disproportionate to his income from 2013 to 2018. The FIR was initially filed in September 2020, with an investigation mandated to be concluded within three months by the high court.
