‘Corruption is a crime no matter who is involved in it and the BJP is not trying to cover up facts and bury the case’
Responding to media queries on BJP MLA Madal Virupaksappa, whose son has been caught by the Lokayukta while accepting a bribe, the former Chief Minister and BJP leader B.S. Yediyurappa has said that a report on the issue has already been sent to the party’s Central Parliamentary Board for further action.
“Corruption is a crime no matter who is involved in it. Legal action will be taken against him (Prakashanth Madal, son of Mr Virupakshappa). The BJP is not trying to cover up facts and bury the case. The culprit will shortly be arrested. There is no question of protecting corrupt,” Mr Yediyurappa told media representatives in Jewargi.
