Bengaluru: Bommanahalli Mla Satish Reddy, whose two SUVs were destroyed in the fire recently at his residence, alleged that the mafia cable was behind the attack.
Even though MLA hasn’t named anyone, the claim is different from the initial statement by the police, who said the attackers were targeting MLA because they could not tolerate their luxury.
The police reportedly held back three accused on Friday.
On Saturday, Reddy told the media: “I don’t want to give anyone now.
But I suspect the hand of the cable mafia behind the burning.
They are not happy with me for various reasons.
Those who are captured are actors; they work for some cable operators.
Their director is another person.
“On August 12, three people had entered Reddy’s house through the rear gate, pouring gasoline in the SUV and burning it.
While sneaking out, they had changed their clothes with the Hoodwink police.
They have used a stolen bicycle, however, helping the police to trace them.
Police Commissioner Kamal pants previously stated that the three men were upset after one of them, who wanted help, was rejected into Reddy’s House.
However, he then said: “We will not believe their claims without evidence.
Detailed investigations will reveal the truth.”
