Bangalore : Karnataka Lokayukta Police  gave a clean chit to Home Minister R Ashok by filing ‘B’ Form in the Lokayukta Court in connection with a private complaint on denotification charges.

Judge N Sudhindra Rao called for objection, if any, by the complainant and posted further hearing to January 6.

Former Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa was also made as accused by complainant Jaykumar Hiremath accusing Mr Yeddyurappa and Mr Ashok of entering into a conspiracy to de-notify lands at Lottegollahalli in RMV Extension years after Mr Ashok got the same sites registered in his name when the property was still in the possession of the government.
