Mangaluru drug case is taking many twists and turns. Taking a strong objection to the media reports in the Mangaluru drugs case involving TV anchor Anushree, former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Saturday asked a thorough probe into 'media leaks'. He was annoyed over media reports recommending that Anushree was constantly in touch with a former CM and his son prior to deposing before the Central Crime Bureau of Mangaluru. The CBI is investigating the drugs case allegedly involving popular choreographer Kishore Aman Shetty and Anushree.

Former to becoming a hit TV anchor, Anushree had worked in a Kannada TV channel maintained by Kumaraswamy. His son Nikhil Gowda used to head its operations. In the last two days, some channels have been running speculative stories quoting 'police sources' that Anushree was in touch with a CM and his son. However, none of the channels mentioned any specific names in their stories. Speaking to reporters after meeting Industries Minister Jagadish Shettar, a visibly angry Kumaraswamy retorted that he was demanding an inquiry into these media reports.

He added sharply if the media houses have information, then let them come out with facts. "Why are you (media) guys beating around the bush?" he asked. Meanwhile, TV anchor Anushree posted an emotional video clip appealing to her fans and the media, in particular, stating that merely police calls for deposition cannot be construed as condemned of a crime. "I am not an accused person as the media portrays. I am paying the price for joining hands with a choreographer to learn dancing skills. I did not know till recently, relationships of this kind would haunt me forever. I am not involved in drugs or any parties," she said while visibly emotional.
