Despite an FIR being filed at the Kempegowda Nagar police station, Inspector Shivajirao and Sub-Inspector Shivanand allegedly conspired to accept a bribe of six lakhs to assist the accused. Following Kesavamurthy's complaint, the Lokayukta conducted a raid.
According to Ashok's complaint, the journalists falsely accused him and his team of assistant executive engineers of accepting bribes and delivering substandard work. The situation took a dark turn in November 2024 when the duo demanded a hefty sum of Rs 27 lakh from Ashok, threatening to report him to the Lokayukta if he did not comply. They even went as far as suggesting that Ashok construct a shed in Ramanagara as an alternative payment option.
