With the police issuing a third notice to depose before the Karnataka Criminal Investigation Department (CID) in connection with the police sub-inspector recruitment scam, Congress MLA Priyank Kharge said he is not obligated in any manner to either provide documents or appear before them.

“I wish to reiterate that I am not a ‘witness’ to any of the illegal and unlawful action alleged to have taken place in the ‘scam’ and ‘crime’ as referred by you, and therefore I am not obligated in any manner to either provide documents or appear before you,” Kharge said in his reply to the Director General of Police (CID) on Thursday.
