Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court (HC) has issued summons to Ex Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa, his son BJP Vice President Vijayendra and others to appear for inquiry before the court on August 17, in connection with a corruption case.

The summons, issued on August 5, are also being issued to his family members Shashidhar Maradi, Virupakshappa Yamakanamaradi, Sanjayasri, contractor Chandrakanth Ramalingam, former minister S.T. Somashekar, IAS officer Dr. G.C. Prakash, hotel industrialist K. Ravi on Thursday.

It is alleged that Yediyurappa received kickbacks from contractors over a housing project in Bengaluru Development Authority. It is also alleged that Yediyurappa's family misused the Chief Minister's Office and kickbacks were received from contractors. The plea accuses Yediyurappa of allotting, speeding and approving projects to receive kickbacks.

Advocate TJ Abraham had filed a petition against the former Chief Minister and others. The complaint was filed before the People's Representative Court. The court had dismissed the petition for want of sanction on July 8 as Yediyurappa was the Chief Minister.
