₹80 Crore Police Land Grab Attempt in Bengaluru: FIR Filed Against BESCOM Officials and Private Individuals

Over time, after the police station was shifted near K.C. General Hospital, the quarters continued to be occupied by police personnel. Currently, four families are residing on the premises.

The issue came to light a few months ago when the electricity bill, which was earlier issued in the name of the police department, was suddenly transferred to a private individual named Mahalakshmi. This raised suspicion among the residents, prompting an internal inquiry.

Further investigation revealed that not just the electricity connection, but the entire property records had allegedly been transferred into the name of the private individual. Authorities suspect manipulation of official documents and misuse of government records to claim ownership of the land.

In a more alarming development, it was found that a sale agreement had been executed between Mahalakshmi and another individual named Krishnamurthy at the Hebbal Sub-Registrar’s office. The accused reportedly attempted to create a legal dispute and later sought an out-of-court settlement to legitimize their claim, allegedly misleading both the judiciary and government departments.

Following a detailed internal probe, the police department has now filed an FIR against Mahalakshmi, Krishnamurthy, and concerned officials from BBMP and BESCOM for their alleged role in незаконное transfer of ownership and issuing clearances without proper verification.

Police have also moved court asserting ownership of the land and are contesting the claims made by the accused. The case has raised serious concerns about how government land, especially police property, can be targeted through forged documentation and administrative lapses.

Officials stated that if such an attempt can be made on land occupied by police families, it raises larger questions about the safety of public and private properties across the city. Further investigation is underway.
