The special Central Bureau of Investigation court has rejected the anticipatory bail plea filed by former Karnataka Karnataka chief minister B S Yeddyurappa.
Yeddyurappa, who is being probed by the CBI for his alleged role in illegal mining, had sought anticipatory bail apprehending arrest.
Yeddyurappa's legal team advanced arguments for nearly a week, stating that the CBI ought not to arrest him as he will available for questioning as and when the agency needed him.
The CBI on the other submitted that he ought to be arrested after a mandatory round of questioning. They said that being a former CM, he is a very powerful person and could well tamper with the evidence.
With this order, Yeddyurappa once again faces arrest. He is likely to be summoned for questioning and could be arrested, based on the manner in which he faces the probe or cooperates with the investigation.
