Bengaluru Central Crime Branch(CCB) police Tuesday conducted searches on three offices of the Social Democratic Party of India (SDFI) in connection with violence reported from the streets of Devarajeevanahalli (DJ Halli) and Kadugodanahalli (KG Halli) in East Bengaluru last month. The police have taken a search warrant from the court and formed three separate teams to conduct searches in the SDPI offices in various parts of Bengaluru.
A day after the incident, Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai had said the government was considering banning organisations like the PFI and SDPI for their alleged role in the violence. The Bengaluru City Police had also identified several accused as SDPI members after filing the initial bunch of First Information Reports (FIRs).
Speaking to Indianexpress.com, Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Sandeep Patil said, “In the DJ Halli case and KG Halli case we took search warrant from Court and three teams of CCB conducted searches in three SDPI offices in DJ Halli, KG Halli, Halsurgate.”
