PTI, Feb 24, 2022, 8:28 AM IST
Amidst demand from a section within the ruling BJP to hand over the probe into killing of a Bajrang Dal activist in Shivamogga to National Investigation Agency (NIA), Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday said a decision in this connection will be taken based on the outcome of police investigation.
He said along with the probe, maintaining peace and order in Shivamogga that witnessed violence including stone-pelting and arson following the murder, is his government’s priority.
“Several people have been arrested, investigation is on. Depending on what comes out of the investigation it will be decided as to which agency has to investigate further. We should give an opportunity for police to investigate first,” Bommai said in response to a question on demand for a NIA inquiry.
